Alice Ravenhall is a Queen’s Counsel, one of the most respected
barristers in London and a successful prosecutor at the Old Bailey,
but her glittering career has come at a cost. Divorced and with a
newly empty nest, Alice finds herself disillusioned with a life
spent incarcerating criminals for the Crown. So when a judge
friend tips her off about the impending collapse of a murder trial,
Alice feels compelled to investigate. What she will uncover is a
twenty year-old secret and a web of betrayal that endangers more
lives. Now Alice must work out who to trust, confront a killer and
ensure her first attempt at pursuing justice outside the court-room
isn’t also her last.

"One part courtroom drama, one part whodunnit, one part relationship drama, Beyond the Bailey is
full of twists and turns but also packed full of thoughtful writing and great characterisation."
