journey through the legal system - and explains how it's failing all of us.  The Sunday Times
number one bestseller. Winner of the Books are My Bag Non-Fiction Award Shortlisted for
Waterstones Book of the Year Shortlisted for Specsavers Non-Fiction Book of the Year   You may
not wish to think about it  but one day you or someone you love will almost certainly appear in
a criminal courtroom. You might be a juror  a victim  a witness or - perhaps through no fault
of your own - a defendant. Whatever your role  you'd expect a fair trial.  I'm a barrister. I
work in the criminal justice system  and every day I see how fairness is not guaranteed. Too
often the system fails those it is meant to protect. The innocent are wronged and the guilty
are allowed to walk free.  In The Secret Barrister: Stories of the Law and How It's Broken I
want to share some stories from my daily life to show you how the system is broken  who broke
it and why we should start caring before it's too late.   ____    'Eye-opening  funny and
horrifying' - The Observer   'Everyone who has any interest in public life should read it' -
