A good overall read, most of the twists, I guessed. It says it's a courtroom thriller but is written from the main  characters' points of view & the courtroom part is not long.

Hmm, not great… not terrible… harrowing start, pretty boring legal-heavy midsection, then from 85% onwards it went plot twist daft. Could have done with a bit more suspicion interspersed throughout. Decent enough read though.
