This book is my attempt to bring some kind of accountability, simply by telling the truth.</i>''<br><br>The police killing of Christopher Alder was one of the most notorious deaths in custody in the UK, involving the destruction of evidence, a whitewash of an investigation and illegal surveillance. <br><br>Christopher''s sister Janet has been relentlessly fighting for justice for decades, and fearlessly holds the UK''s state institutions to account in this extraordinary book.<br><br><b>This book is a probing expose of what went on, based on exhaustive documentary evidence, as well as the personal story of Janet''s fight to uncover the truth.</b></p>
