Dissection of a Murder opens Goodreads in a new tab

Leila Reynolds, an up-and-coming barrister in Durham, is handed her first murder case: the killing of a respected Crown Court judge. The defendant, club bouncer and ex-con Jack Millman, specifically asks for her, yet refuses to tell her anything before trial. Leila must investigate herself, gathering evidence and witness statements, while the prosecutor facing her in court is her husband and former mentor, Julian, who has been acting suspiciously. As anonymous threats arrive from someone who knows her every move, explosive secrets from her own past begin to surface.
