I was asked by NetGalley to review another of Rob Rinders great court novels. This is another Adam Green a junior barrister with his own cases- who always goes above a beyond and his fab Jewish mother.

There is an art exhibition at the Royal Accademy where the artist witnesses her art being sabotaged with blue paint as a protest of war - but goes a little further in that the protestor laces this with cyandide ( a touch of Agatha Christie here) and the artist drops down dead! looking for the police to be an open and shut case witnessed by attendees and caught on a mobile phone. Then there is a court martial of a soldier accused of murdering a civilian child whist on duty in Kandistan.

So ow will these cases proceed?

Rob Rinder pulls on his experience in law and can tell a good story also. Well written and recommended.
