The Sentence by Christina Dalcher
5.0
dark emotional sad tense

Vox was the book that inspired my dissertation when it was released a few years back, and while I’ve enjoyed Christina Dalcher’s novels since - they didn’t quite live up to my intense love for Vox.

The Sentence has changed this.

The Remedies Act demands that the lead prosecutor is willing to stake their own life on the certainty of guilt when asking for the death penalty. If innocence is later proven, they themselves will be on death row.

A brilliant book for a book club read because there is so much to discuss, ethically, legally and politically. I love to read (obviously!!) but I have been willing myself to find time and sit and read this in great binge worthy chunks.
