Resurrection Walk is the 38th novel by American author Michael Connelly and his seventh to feature Los Angeles criminal defense attorney Mickey Haller. The book was published in the United States in 2023.

The novel follows Mickey Haller as he starts to follow a new sort of calling in his career: working to bring justice to those who have been wrongfully convicted.

The book also features Haller's half-brother, Harry Bosch, who assists him in his capacity as a private investigator.

The title is a based on the idea of resurrection, which is the act of bringing somebody back from the dead. In the legal sense, it is giving a new life of freedom to somebody who had previously been sentenced to serve a sentence of life in prison.

Some of the themes in the novel are a bit different than in previous novels. In previous Lincoln Lawyer novels, Haller's character has been focused on helping his clients to achieve a not guilty verdict in court, while this novel focuses on the goal of the exoneration of those who have been improperly convicted. The book is in some ways akin to a fictionalized version of the Innocence Project.
