A great read' Anna FunderFrom the Olivier award-winning playwright of Prima Facie Suzie Miller comes her first novel, where power, patriarchy and morality diverge.   This is not life. This is law.'Tessa Ensler is a brilliant barrister who's forged her career in criminal defence through sheer determination. Since her days at Cambridge, she's carefully disguised her working class roots in a male-dominated world where who you know is just as important as what you know.
