Synopsis "El Quinto Testigo (in Spanish)"

El abogado Mickey Haller está acostumbrado a defender a personas en situaciones límite. Y con la crisis económica, los clientes con problemas abundan. Especialmente si sus dificultades están relacionadas con los bancos y con el pago de sus hipotecas. Es el caso de Lisa Trammel, que a duras penas puede mantener su casa y a su hijo después de que su marido los abandonara. Las cosas no van bien para Lisa, pero aún pueden ir mucho peor. Acaban de encontrar asesinado a un directivo del banco que le había concedido la hipoteca a Lisa y a ella la van a acusar del crimen. Haller va a tener que poner toda la carne en el asador si quiere salvar a su cliente de precipitarse al abismo.

American writer born on July 21, 1956 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Graduated in Journalism from the University of Florida in 1980, he worked in various media outlets in Fort Lauderdale and Daytona Beach.

After being nominated in 1986 for a Pulitzer for a series of interviews with survivors of the Delta Airlines Flight 191 crash, written in collaboration with two colleagues, he moved to California after accepting a job offer from the Los Angeles Times.

Connelly is a well-known author for his detective novels. Particularly popular is his character Heronymus "Harry" Bosch (named in homage to the Flemish painter Hieronymus Bosch), a Los Angeles police detective who appears in more than a dozen of his novels. The novel Blood Work (1998) was later adapted into a film directed and starred by Clint Eastwood.

Throughout his career, he has won well-known awards such as the RBA International Prize for Crime Writing.
