In Her Defence: A dark and gripping courtroom drama for readers of Gillian Flynn and Sarah Vaughan

A page-turning courtroom drama about the dark side of therapy - The Talented Mr Ripley meets Gillian Flynn.

You''ve read about the Finbow trial. You''ve seen it in the tabloids. You''ve watched it when it appeared on the news, unable to peel your eyes away from the spectacle of it all.

Famous, wealthy Anna Finbow, standing in court, accusing therapist Jean Guest of brainwashing her daughter Mary to access to her trust fund.

Jean, claiming that the dark memories she''s helped Mary uncover are real. That therapy has offered her a chance to finally heal.

I''ll tell you now that you shouldn''t believe either of them.

Only I can tell you the truth. But everything I say is in her defence.
