Carlos die Ameise (Michael Gresham Thrillers 4)

It's such an unusual choice for a protagonist in a legal thriller—did the author envision a specific message or theme with this character?

The legal battles felt so real and high-stakes, I wondered how much research went into those moments. Were they inspired by real cases?

The balance between courtroom intrigue and the mystery plot kept me hooked. I'm curious whether this was a structural choice from the start or evolved during writing.
