Whodunit Reveals Criminal-Justice System

Book Review - Rebecca Forster, "Hostile Witness" (Signet 2004) - By Laurie L. Levenson - Only one thing complicates the practice of law: people. In her latest legal novel, "Hostile Witness," Rebecca Forster uses a superbly written whodunit to reveal the true challenges of our criminal-justice system. The demons of our profession do not lie inside the courtroom. They lie within us: the lawyers, witnesses, defendants and judges who make up the "system."
