If you're looking for a book to make you feel, to incite a reaction, this book should do it.  I found myself frustrated and angry and thinking "Good grief! You call this a legal system!" A more fitting title would be something like `In Defense of Meg Rusher' or `To Prosecute Meg Rusher.'Meg claims self-defense when the police come upon the bloody scene of her and two adult men.  They're both down while she's not.  She is a master kick-boxer; They have their own defense.The police procedure and courtroom drama should have you believing that Death in Spigg's Wood is truly about the letter of the law versus the spirit of the law.What I liked about it?  Just that.  It was able to incite a reaction from me.  Frustration and anger.  And that's good enough for me.
