Audio Books →Nothing but the Truth Stories of Crime, Guilt and the Loss of Innocence [Audiobook]

Nothing but the Truth charts an outsider's progress down the winding path towards practising at the Bar, taking in the sometimes absurd traditions of the Inns of Court, where every meal mandates a glass of port and a toast to the queen, to the Hunger Games-type contest for pupillage, through the endlessly frustrating experience of being a junior barrister—as a creaking, ailing justice system begins to convince them that something has to change. 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 20-something to campaigning, best-selling reforming author whose writing in defence of the law is celebrated around the globe. It asks questions about what we understand by justice and what it takes to change our minds. 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.
