What to expect
Brought to by Penguin.
A young woman is dead.
A very wealthy client needs a favour. You're newly qualified as a lawyer and this could be your big break, so you jump at the chance.
The case is about to be closed.
All you have to do is talk to a family, ask them to sign some papers. How difficult could it be? Their daughter was found dead at a beauty spot on the outskirts of London in what you're told was a tragic suicide.
Only you can uncover what really happened.
But the truth is never that simple. And this case could cost you your life...

Critics Review
‘A British take on John Grisham’s The Firm … the interlocking circles of the plot are well oiled and the narrative of greed and corruption timely.’
