The case is a tense thriller, with the Times describing it as \"first-rate\" and the Daily Mail calling it \"unexpected.\" The unexpected twist in the story is a jaw-dropper, according to Saga Magazine. John's lawyers, Judith and Constance, begin a desperate pursuit of the truth, uncovering uncomfortable secrets about the teacher and the school. However, Judith has her own secrets that she risks exposing when it is announced that a new lie-detecting device, nicknamed Pinocchio, will be used during the trial. The question arises as to whether the accused, a troubled boy who loves challenges, is trying to help them or not. The Pinocchio Brief is a gripping, very human thriller that confronts our assumptions about truth and reliance on technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 308g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 131 x 196 x 27 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781785632723                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abi Silver","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096973603066,"sku":"9781785632723","price":6.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/70469a08b20329c6cd17dfb7a7fb6dfb.jpg?v=1633920031","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/pinocchio-brief","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
