You Don't Know Me Zusammenfassung

You Don't Know Me: 'A startlingly confident and deft debut' Tana French Imran Mahmood

As chosen by The BBC RADIO 2 BOOK CLUB and one of The TELEGRAPH'S CRIME BOOKS OF THE YEAR.

'Remarkable' Simon Mayo, BBC Radio 2


It's easy to judge between right and wrong - isn't it?

Not until you hear a convincing truth.

Now it's up to you to decide...


An unnamed defendant stands accused of murder. Just before the Closing Speeches, the young man sacks his lawyer, and decides to give his own defence speech.

He tells us that his barrister told him to leave some things out. Sometimes, the truth can be too difficult to explain, or believe. But he thinks that if he's going to go down for life, he might as well go down telling the truth.

There are eight pieces of evidence against him. As he talks us through them one by one, his life is in our hands. We, the reader - member of the jury - must keep an open mind till we hear the end of his story. His defence raises many questions... but at the end of the speeches, only one matters:

Did he do it?
