Part memoir, part reflection on the institutionalised racism of the police force, Lee Lawrence takes us through not only the story of what happened to his mother, but his fight for justice following her death.

It is a fight for justice, but also about giving his mother the opportunity to have a real day in court even after her death. The fact she was mistakenly shot by police looking for someone else draws such parallels with Breonna Taylor in the US. The fact that the Met say their police practice has changed since 1985 isn't a huge comfort I'm sure to Black families who know the risk to their life remains higher than their white neighbours.

Yes there are clear issues which remain in the police force (and of course wider society) but Lee Lawrence isn't trying to tear down the institution. The key point of his fight was accountability. Making someone take responsibility for the actions which left his mum paralysed, and then killed her. Yes, it is easy to say ACAB.. But it is harder to stand up against the police and fight when you know they are wrong and come away with justice. Absolutely outstanding.
