この本について

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.

Interesting unexpectedly. As the title says, a lawyer who uses violent way to solve problems is the main character. Short stories comprise this book but each story pulls your attention and make you dive into this world. Good feeling after finish reading.

I want sequel.

意外に面白かった一冊。名前(ゴロツキ弁護士)の通り、問題解決のためには相当あくどい手も使う弁護士が主人公。各章がほぼ完結したストーリーとなっていますが、それぞれが面白くて引き込まれます。続編希望。
