About this product

Product Information

I'm a barrister, a job which requires the skills of a social worker, relationship counsellor, arm-twister, hostage negotiator, named driver, bus fare-provider, accountant, suicide watchman, coffee-supplier, surrogate parent and, on one memorable occasion, whatever the official term is for someone tasked with breaking the news to a prisoner that his girlfriend has been diagnosed with gonorrhoea. Welcome to the world of the Secret Barrister. These are the stories of life inside the courtroom. They are sometimes funny, often moving and ultimately life-changing. How can you defend a child-abuser you suspect to be guilty? What do you say to someone sentenced to ten years who you believe to be innocent? What is the law and why do we need it? And why do they wear those stupid wigs? From the criminals to the lawyers, the victims, witnesses and officers of the law, here is the best and worst of humanity, all struggling within a broken system which would never be off the front pages if the public knew what it was really like. Both a searing first-hand account of the human cost of the criminal justice system, and a guide to how we got into this mess, The Secret Barrister wants to show you what it's really like and why it really matters.

Excellent service! Arrived within a couple of days of ordering and over a week ahead of expected. Really well packaged in a box, in new condition as described (still in cellophane wrapping), and at a fabulous price for the trilogy of books I have been searching for. Thank you 👍

    Most enjoyable and easy to read.

    Having been a Juror and attended Court for the obligatory two-week period, I found this to be an excellent insight into how the system and the various positions of those who 'people' it functions. It was a real eye-opener that engages the reader which at times had me shaking my head in disbelief at the sometimes apparent futility at the overall legal procedure.

  • How our Justice System works (or doesn't!)

    A compelling and informative read, explaining the workings and non-workings of the justice system, and why it is in the state it is in. It would be a good read for intending felons, so they would know what to expect if they got caught. Excellent book and very good value.

  • A Nicely Bias Legal Diary !

    Too bias towards the legal profession and its idiosyncrasies, does not take into account the flaws of a jury system etc.
