Summary
THE FIRST NOVEL FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING SECRET BARRISTER WRITING AS S. J. FLEET
_____
'A sensitive and knowledgeable storyteller' James O'Brien
'The Zorro of the criminal bar' The Times
'The authority of this author is in the sheer quality of the writing' Prospect
In the early hours of New Year’s Day the police find the body of a seventy-four-year-old man lying in an alleyway, a large knife sticking out of his chest. Three teenage boys, each caked in the victim’s blood, are arrested and charged with murder. Each defendant denies it. Each points the finger at the other two. Each has their own story to tell, and a barrister at their side to help them tell it.
As the boys and witnesses swear to tell nothing but the truth and testimonies crumble under cross-examination, an edge-of-your-seat drama unfolds. Lies will be told, evidence excluded, and key witnesses kept hidden. When every player has a stake in the game, who will you believe? And will your verdict match the jury’s?
Launching a brilliant new voice in crime fiction, with an incomparable insider’s knowledge, The Cut Throat Trial is The Secret Barrister at their very best.
