a major piece of research ... The book is a vital contribution in shining light on a watchdog that isnt widely understood and yet goes to the heart of the integrity of our justice system. * Jon Robins, New Law Journal * This book about the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) is a treasure trove of information. Lawyers who represent applicants to the CCRC may find it especially of interest, offering insights that could help their work. * Michael Zander QC, LSE *
