She lost everything fighting a system that refused to listen.
Now she's the only one who can see what's happening again.
Helen Morrow was once one of London's sharpest barristers — until a complaint she filed was buried, her career dismantled, and the man she tried to protect was convicted. Three years later, she sits in the public gallery of the Old Bailey as a nobody. Then she hears four words on the stand that stop her cold.
Words she has heard before. In a different courtroom. From a different expert witness. In a case engineered to destroy an innocent man.
Someone is coaching expert witnesses for the Crown. The system she once trusted is being used as a weapon. And the only person alive who can prove it has no certificate, no standing, and eight days before a verdict.
This time, Helen won't raise it with anyone who has a reason to bury it.
A razor-sharp legal thriller about institutional corruption, silenced women, and one disgraced barrister's race to expose the truth before justice is perverted — for the second time.
