BOOK YOU MIGHT LIKE THE TRIAL

By Rob Rinder

When hero policeman Grant Cliveden dies from a poisoning in the Old Bailey, it threatens to shake the country to its core.

The evidence points to one man. Jimmy Knight has been convicted of multiple offences before and defending him will be no easy task. Not least because this is trainee barrister Adam Green’s first case.

But it will quickly become clear that Jimmy Knight is not the only person in Cliveden’s past with an axe to grind.

The only thing that’s certain is that this is a trial which will push Adam - and the justice system itself - to the limit. . .

Rob Rinder is a barrister turned writer and broadcaster. In 2014, while still a practising barrister, he began starring in his reality court show Judge Rinder, and he now uses his legal knowledge working in the media to make the law more accessible.

He is also the author of two books and a columnist for the Sun and the London Evening Standard newspapers.

His participation in Who Do You Think You Are? retraced the story of his Holocaust survivor grandfather and received a BAFTA. The BBC series he presented, The Holocaust, My Family and Me, was aired to wide critical acclaim.

In 2020, Rob was awarded an MBE for his services to Holocaust education and an honorary doctorate for his legal work. The Trial is his debut novel and is inspired by Rob’s own experiences as a barrister.
