Synopsis: Sebastian Rudd is not your typical street lawyer. He works out of a customized bulletproof van, complete with Wi-Fi, a bar, a small fridge, fine leather chairs, a hidden gun compartment, and a heavily armed driver. He has no firm, no partners, no associates, and only one employee, his driver, who’s also his bodyguard, law clerk, confidant, and golf caddy. He lives alone in a small but extremely safe penthouse apartment, and his primary piece of furniture is a vintage pool table. He drinks small-batch bourbon and carries a gun.
Sebastian defends people other lawyers won’t go near: a drug-addled, tattooed kid rumored to be in a satanic cult, who is accused of molesting and murdering two little girls; a vicious crime lord on death row; a homeowner arrested for shooting at a SWAT team that mistakenly invaded his house. Why these clients? Because he believes everyone is entitled to a fair trial, even if he, Sebastian, has to cheat to secure one. He hates injustice, doesn’t like insurance companies, banks, or big corporations; he distrusts all levels of government and laughs at the justice system’s notions of ethical behavior.
Sebastian Rudd is one of John Grisham’s most colorful, outrageous, and vividly drawn characters yet. Gritty, witty, and impossible to put down, Rogue Lawyer showcases the master of the legal thriller at his very best.

Grey exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined,

office, in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair. He tries
to forget her, but instead is swept up in a storm of emotion he cannot
comprehend and cannot resist. Unlike any woman he has known before, shy,
unworldly Ana seems to see right through him—past the business prodigy
and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian’s cold, wounded heart.

every night? Or will his dark sexual desires, his compulsion to
control, and the self-loathing that fills his soul drive this girl away
and destroy the fragile hope she offers him?
