In dit boek geven advocaten Bart Vosters, Christophe Bielen en Janou Riemis een onthullende kijk achter de schermen van justitie. Ze bespreken de meest beklijvende strafzaken waarin ze zelf een rol hebben gespeeld. Ze fileren elk dossier tot op het bot en leggen diverse pijnpunten van het strafsysteem in België bloot, van het politieonderzoek tot in de rechtszaal.
