About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Beyond Reasonable Doubt by Gary Bell, read by Hugh Kermode.

LONGLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGER AWARD 2020

The start of a thrilling new legal series, perfect for fans of Robert Galbraith and The Secret Barrister, written by an acclaimed QC.

Elliot Rook QC is one of the greatest barristers of his generation.

He is also a complete fraud.

Elliot Rook is the epitome of a highly successful, old Etonian QC. Or so everyone believes. In fact, he is an ex-petty criminal with a past that he has spent decades keeping secret. Until now…

An unidentified young woman of Middle Eastern origin has been found murdered on the outskirts of Rook’s home town. Billy Barber – a violent football hooligan and white-supremacist – is accused of her murder. Barber insists that Rook must defend him. If Rook refuses, Barber will expose him, bringing crashing to the ground the life and career that Rook has spent his life building.

The truth is there for the finding. But at what cost?

Nice amount of complexity.
Good banter.
Like the respect & relationship between Rook & Zara which tbh was unexpected as imagined it would be another older boss//tutor threatened by bright young woman... refreshingly it wasn't.

Enjoyable
