Roulet's lies and many surprising revelations change Haller's original case theory. At first, he appears to be innocent and set up by the female "victim". While most of his clients are drug dealers and gangsters, the story focuses on an unusually important case of wealthy Los Angeles realtor Louis Roulet, accused of assault and attempted murder. Moderately successful criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller operates around Los Angeles County out of a Lincoln Town Car (hence the title) driven by a former client working off his legal fees. It was adapted as a 2011 film of the same name, starring Matthew McConaughey.

And when I cross-examined her - someone who I believe was completely embellishing - there was no, like, ‘rarrr.’ It was very sort of soft, surgical, and methodical, obviously. The people popping in and out of the courtroom on glorious days - like a summation day or when the main witness testified - and write articles that tell you how the case should end up - that should be offensive to you guys. You just gave nine weeks of your life in this room, listening everyday to every piece of evidence. I connected with them saying, ‘Look, guys, you have to be offended. So I picked the very smart jury - I picked, like, five Ivy Leaguers on that jury.
Not alleged rape cops - they were called ‘rape cops’! Presumption of innocence aside, ‘rape cops’! But that’s the name of the case - that became the ‘rape cop’ drama.
I mean, these guys were called rape cops for two years. “You know, when I did the ‘rape cops’ case - I got an acquittal in that one - that was a difficult case.
