'Miller's star shines as brightly as a novelist as it does as a playwright. Prima Facie the novel gives us what novels do: the intimacy of interior life. A great read' Anna Funder
From the Olivier award-winning playwright of Prima Facie Suzie Miller comes her first novel, where power, patriarchy and morality diverge.
‘This is not life. This is law.’
Tessa Ensler is a brilliant barrister who's forged her career in criminal defence through sheer determination. Since her days at Cambridge, she’s carefully disguised her working class roots in a male-dominated world where who you know is just as important as what you know. Driven by her belief in the right to a fair trial and a taste for victory, there’s nothing Tessa loves more than the thrill of getting her clients acquitted.
It seems like Tessa has it made when she is approached for a new job and nominated for the most prestigious award in her field. But when a date with a charismatic colleague goes horribly wrong, Tessa finds that the rules she’s always played by might not protect her, forcing her to question everything she's ever believed in . . .

A book that hits hard and will always stay on your mind.
Tessa is a barrister and defends offenders who have enough money for a good barrister like her. She knows how she can make them look innocent, how to pressure the victim of sexual crimes into spilling details that could lead to a conviction in favor of the defendant. She knows that it is just her job and the way it is, until something happens that changes her mind completely. This book will make you mad and question so many things. I loved it and hated everything about its unfairness at the same time. -

Who let the dogs out?
This work of art is a powerful punch into the façade of the british judicial system! Suzie Miller puts her finger into the wound of classism and sexism and pushes hard. She takes her time to get to the point, which may seem unnecessary - but makes it hurt all the sweeter.
