Jailhouse Lawyer by James Patterson

Prepare to be hooked by an unputdownable legal thriller from the world's bestselling crime writer...

_____________________________

A young lawyer takes on the judge who is destroying her hometown - and ends up behind bars.

In picture-perfect Erva, Alabama, the most serious crimes are misdemeanours. Speeding tickets. Shoplifting. Contempt of court.

Then why is the jail so crowded? And why are so few prisoners released? There is only one place to learn the truth.

Sometimes the best education a lawyer can get is a short stretch of hard time. . .
