"Taut, gritty and compelling. This book deserves to be huge." (Louise Jensen, million-copy best-selling author of The Sister)

"Intense, shocking and so real you can literally feel its heartbeat...." (Lisa Hall, author of Between You and Me and The Party)

Excellent courtroom drama

This courtroom drama was great on audio. I think having three actors voicing the different parts really helped make the characters distinct. Definitely recommend the audio version of this book
