Nuanced Courtroom Thriller. This is an interesting one. One with a main protagonist that... has several rough edges, at least a couple of which come back to bite her. One with a strong commentary about the role of Muslims in British (and by slight extension, Western) society, at many different levels. One with a strong discussion of what it means to be the "other"... in so many different ways. And one with secrets almost literally to the last word. Tremendous book, and very much recommended.
