Après avoir fait libérer un homme de prison, l’avocat Mickey Haller est inondé de demandes de détenus clamant leur innocence. Pour étudier leurs dossiers, il embauche son demi-frère, l’ex-inspecteur du LAPD Harry Bosch. Un seul cas retient l’attention de ce dernier : une mère accusée d’avoir tué son ex-mari, adjoint des services du shérif, lesquels se sont montrés pressés de "rendre justice" à l’un des leurs.

Story
The Musgrave Ritual is a short story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, featuring his fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. The story was originally published in Strand Magazine in 1919, and was collected later in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. Unlike the majority of Holmes stories, the main narrator is not Doctor Watson, but Sherlock Holmes himself. With Watson providing an introduction, the story within a story is a classic example of a frame tale. It is one of the earliest recorded cases investigated by Holmes, and establishes his problem solving skills.
