Overview
No va a permitir que la verdad se interponga en el camino de la justicia...
Sebastian Rudd no es el tĆpico abogado: lleva arma y su oficina es una camioneta a prueba de balas conducida por su guardaespaldas, que a su vez es su asistente legal y Ćŗnico amigo. Defiende a quienes otros no querrĆan ni ver: un drogadicto, un chico tatuado que supuestamente forma parte de un culto satĆ”nico acusado de acosar y matar a dos niƱas pequeƱas, un criminal en el corredor de la muerte, un hombre arrestado por disparar a unos geo al entrar por error en su casa... ĀæPor quĆ© estos clientes?
Porque cree que todo el mundo tiene derecho a un juicio justo, incluso aunque Ć©l tenga que hacer trampa para conseguirlo. Odia la injusticia, no le gustan las aseguradoras, los bancos o las grandes empresas, desconfĆa de cualquier persona que tenga que ver con el Gobierno y se rĆe de las nociones del sistema judicial sobre comportamiento Ć©tico.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Charles Finch, USA Todayā¢ A #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
ā¢ NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND NPR
ā¢ Featuring one of John Grishamās most colorful, outrageous, and vividly drawn characters yet, Rogue Lawyer showcases the master of the legal thriller at his very best.
Ā
On the right side of the lawāsort ofāSebastian Rudd is not your typical street lawyer. His office is a customized bulletproof van, complete with Wi-Fi, a bar, a small fridge, and fine leather chairs. 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. Sebastian drinks small-batch bourbon and carries a gun. He defends people other lawyers wonāt 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. Why these clients? Because Sebastian believes everyone is entitled to a fair trialāeven if he has to bend the law to secure one.
