What’s a good science fiction, courtroom drama, or mystery book?


Or all of the above. :D
I’m looking for a decent plot-twisty, exciting, almost Phoenix Wright-like courtroom suspense novel (that’s not Jodi Picoult, I always find the hundreds of pages leading into said suspense so tedious…),

Or an intriguing science fiction novel. I’m currently thinking about “Revelation Space” or “Glasshouse” (the latter because I heard it’s apparently a good mind****, which I’m always in for. Pardon the French).
