I chose to read this book almost on a whim, and I am so glad I did, as it turned out to be one of my favourite books of the year so far. But tonight he will hear her testimony.įor some reason, I seem to resist a lot of historical fiction, even though when it is written as well as The Trial Of Lotta Rae, it can be completely consuming and compelling. Now they will travel to a fateful destination, where truths must be faced and wrongs will be righted. Twelve years later, as the suffragettes rise and the ghost of WW1 looms large over London, William is joined again by Lotta Rae. But what none could foresee were the shocking consequences. The verdict is devastating and Lotta Rae soon realises the guardians of justice do not support her. She seeks justice at an Old Bailey trial alongside her barrister, William Linden, who she believes to be her ally. On Halloween night, 1906, young working class Lotta Rae is attacked by a wealthy gentleman. This review is written with thanks to Pigeonhole for the opportunity to read and review The Trial Of Lotta Rae.
