Sensationalist in topic, possibly by analogy to the Cameron era, but not really that good. (Actually better I think).
A political aide is possibly raped by an ex Bullingdon Club MP, and the process repeats an event that happened 20 years earlier when he was an Oxford student. He is guilty by virtue of his political type.
The prosecuting lawyer in his trial turns out to be the victim of the earlier rape, and of course he gets off. The book resonates in my memory better than this, particularly the ambiguity of the more recent rape.
