About the Book

In the tradition of bestselling legal memoirs from Johnnie Cochran, F. Lee Bailey,Gerry Spence, and Alan Dershowitz, John Henry Browne's memoir, The Devil's Defender, recounts his tortuous education in what it means to be an advocate-and a human being.For the last four decades, Browne has defended the indefensible. From Facebook folk hero "the Barefoot Bandit" Colton Moore, to Benjamin Ng of the Wah Mee massacre, to Kandahar massacre culprit Sgt. Robert Bales, Browne's unceasing advocacy and the daring to take on some of the most unwinnable cases-and nearly win them all-has led 48 Hours' Peter Van Sant to call him "the most famous lawyer in America."But although the Browne that America has come to know cuts a dashing and confident figure, he has forever been haunted by his job as counsel to Ted Bundy, the most famous serial killer in American history. A drug- and alcohol-addicted (yet wildly successful) defense attorney who could never let go of the case that started it all, Browne here asks of himself the question others have asked him all along: does defending evil make you evil, too?

About the Author :
John Henry Browne, one of America s leading criminal defense attorneys, has practiced law out of his Seattle offices for nearly 40 years. His life and work have been profiled in the "New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times," and elsewhere."

Review :
"John Henry Browne writes like a force of nature because he is one. The charismatic, polarizing rock-star defense lawyer has written an edge-of-your-seat account of his wonderfully strange life and exploits in and out of the courtroom, from babysitting Jimi Hendrix to defending the indefensible, including the likes of notorious serial killer Ted Bundy, Staff Sgt. Robert Bales (the soldier accused of murdering sixteen Afghan men, women and children in the so-called Kandahar Massacre), and Colton Harris-Moore (the "Barefoot Bandit"), among many, many others. What is most remarkable about The Devil's Defender is not just that it reads like the thriller it actually is but also that what emerges after the smoke clears is a portrait of a genuine American hero, who believes above all else that everyoneno matter how apparently reprehensibledeserves the very best defense our legal system can offer." Matthew Carnahan, creator/showrunner, Showtime's House of Lies
