It is one of the biggest trials of the year. Three seventeen-year-old boys are accused of the brutal murder of an elderly teacher on New Year's Eve.
Each boy denies it.
Each points the finger at the other two.
But they can’t all be innocent.
The three defence barristers have only one job: to persuade the jury that their client is not guilty. But they’re up against a prosecutor who needs to win the case, no matter the cost.
Because when the game is murder, the competition is deadly.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
It’s going to be a dramatic and brutal trial. Three teenage boys are accused of the murder of an elderly teacher, but each of them blames another. This shocking opening is just the start. This is the first fiction book from S. J. Fleet—another pen name for the anonymous, and highly popular, legal blogger The Secret Barrister—and their sharp writing and courtroom experience enhances the fast-paced, twisting story. This audio version is brilliantly adapted, with veteran actor Toby Jones leading the large cast with his customary understated skill.
