challenging informative tense medium-paced

4.5

This was the first true crime book I have ever read; an informative and emotional non-fiction lens into the life of a defence barrister. Although a lot of the chapters and represented stories were challenging and triggering (definitely check the content warnings!) this book informed me about the legal world and the lives of many people affected.
