The Secret Barrister says: ‘There is often a chasm between what the public expects from our criminal justice system, and the views held by those who work in the legal profession. Here’s a very special writer who’s going from strength to strength.’ This is a really fresh look at the law and life, a wonderfully entertaining and eye-opening romp through a young barrister’s journey that’s full of surprises. It also reveals the darker side of working in criminal law, and how the things our justice system gets wrong are not the things most people expect.Īndrea Henry, Editorial Director at Picador, comments: ‘What a privilege to be working with The Secret Barrister for their third book. It asks questions about what we understand by justice, and what it takes to change our minds. Full of hilarious, shocking, and surprising stories from their working life, Nothing But The Truth tracks the Secret Barrister’s transformation from hang ‘em and flog ‘em, austerity-supporting twentysomething to campaigning, bestselling, reforming author whose writing in defence of the law is celebrated around the globe.
