Praise for Summary Justice and Blind Defence
Assured storytelling and highly intriguing moral complexity. I tore through it Chris Brookmyre

The courtroom scenes are brilliant, and Benson really comes alive under pressure. Stubborn, fitful and contradictory, he s a highly individualised creation Spectator

Punchy dialogue and devious plotlines . . . compelling The Times
