William Benson.
Criminal barrister.
Convicted murderer....

Convicted of murder sixteen years ago, William Benson is ostracised by the establishment and his family. Supported by a close-knit group including solicitor Tess de Vere, he's defied them all and opened his own Chambers. Now he faces the case of his life - and the terminal illness of Helen Camberley who helped him leave his prison life behind

Jorge Menderez, a doctor from Spain, has been found dead in a deserted warehouse in East London. A troubled man, he'd turned to counsellor Karen Lynwood seeking help. Now Karen's husband, John, is accused of his murder. Who is Menderez, and why did he come to London? Benson is defending the couple against seemingly impossible odds, while secrets from his own past threaten to overwhelm him...

John Fairfax wraps up a fine story with what seems like many hidden truths. The pace, plot line, occasional repetition that joins the three books, and the distinct voices of the characters are all well crafted. The narration by Daniel Weyman is simply superb. One of the best, and there are many good ones bringing audio books to life, that I have ever listened to on Audible.

Well, I really loved these 3 books which must be heard in order as there is a running story. The stories are excellent, the narrator is great and I really hope there will be more! They’d be great on TV.

Loved it. Listened to the first three books of the series in a week. The background plot that runs through all three books is very cleverly put together.

Brilliant storytelling
