Each of the six trials is started with a fictionalised version of events from the perspective of someone involved. This grounds the description of the trial to come and humanises the defendant and others involved.

The cases were each fascinating for one reason or another. The twists and turns had me dropping my jaw as I read.

My only complaint is a major one and it’s that there were only six trials! I could have read a hundred and one and not been sated.
Definitely recommend.
