BOOK CLUB PICK* ONE MURDER. ONE IMPOSSIBLE CASE. WHO IS GUILTY? When hero policeman Grant
Cliveden dies from a poisoning in the Old Bailey it threatens to shake the country to its
core. The evidence points to one man. Jimmy Knight has been convicted of multiple offences
before and defending him will be no easy task. Not least because this is trainee barrister Adam
Green's first case. But it will quickly become clear that Jimmy Knight is not the only person
in Cliveden's past with an axe to grind. The only thing that's certain is that this is a trial
which will push Adam - and the justice system itself - to the limit. . . Note: There is a
