ABC Book Group. Some of us found it implausible. Good writing. Would Mark have wanted to get that involved given he was so secretive and a womaniser. Good insight into the legal system and how women in particular are treated in sex offence cases. One person found the court details too much but others found it really conjured up courtroom atmosphere. 7.5/10
