Praise for Rogue Lawyer Terrific .
Why these clients? Because Sebastian believes everyone is entitled to a fair trial--even if he has to bend the law to secure one.
He defends people other lawyers won\'t go near: a drug-addled, tattooed kid rumored to be in a satanic cult; a vicious crime lord on death row; a homeowner arrested for shooting at a SWAT team that mistakenly invaded his house.
Sebastian drinks small-batch bourbon and carries a gun.
He has no firm, no partners, and only one employee: his heavily armed driver, who also so happens to be his bodyguard, law clerk, confidant, and golf caddie.
His office is a customized bulletproof van, complete with Wi-Fi, a bar, a small fridge, and fine leather chairs.
On the right side of the law--sort of--Sebastian Rudd is not your typical street lawyer. #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND NPR - Featuring one of John Grisham\'s most colorful, outrageous, and vividly drawn characters yet, Rogue Lawyer showcases the master of the legal thriller at his very best
