The Reversal by Michael Connelly

"The last time I'd eaten at the Water Grill I sat across the table from a client who had coldly and calculatedly murdered his wife and her lover, shooting both of them in the face."

Well, that's quite a spoiler of the second Mickey Haller book, if you're reading them out of order (or if you're reading this as a Harry Bosch novel and are thinking of going back to the Mickey Haller books later.) It is intriguing though, and certainly doesn't give away the interesting details of how or why.
