Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is an interesting book by two well-known writers.
Reading this book you certainly get a feel for club-land in the 1950's and the world that Ruth Ellis inhabited and for that the book should be commended
However, the whole "Diminished Responsibility" argument is ridiculous as the 2002 Court of Appeal decision on the case pointed out.
Thats aside, worth a read.
