Really interesting and informative read, written in a way that makes it easy to follow and understand even complex legal issues.
I did find it dragged a little at the end and found the last chapter repetitive at times.

A really interesting insight into how the laws around Homicide have evolved in the UK, with lots of case studies to illustrate how case law has changed (and what has stayed the same). Quite a lot of repetition in the text - I wonder if this is because the author is also a lawyer? Not sure, but although it was noticeable, it didn't detract from how compelling the book is.
