The (Un)lawful Killing of Daniel Brown Marta Pacini

The (Un)lawful Killing of Daniel Brown is a gripping YA book set in contemporary East London.

Marcus, 15, wants to bring Police Sergeant Talbot Blair to justice for shooting his father dead in a racially motivated incident. But how can he do that when the police investigators have cleared Blair of blame? Will an inquest make any difference?

Part Small Great Things, part The Hate U Give, this compelling story sees a young man take on the entire criminal justice system.

Perfect for fans of Angie Thomas, Alex Wheatle and Nic Stone.
