This author was new to me, but I'll definitely be looking for her later books. It works beautifully as a legal thriller, and brings to life some fascinating and some truly reprehensible characters. It's also a scathing indictment of racism, both subtle and brutally overt, and its influence and impact. I truly couldn't put the book down: well done!
