Ophelia, criminal lawyer, is in for a shock. Her husband announces he's been having an affair, and leaves. Her home life and work implode - before long, she's broke, drinking too much and falling for a client. And then she is faced with the most serious trial of her life, when a disgruntled defendant comes back to haunt her.
Clare Jacob was brought up in London and New York. She read English at Oxford and became a barrister because she loved John Donne. After years of defending clients accused variously of bomb-making, hiding cocaine in coconuts and stealing under-pants, she decided to capture the lunacy and mystery of it all in a novel. She is married with three children.
