What turns them towards violence?A young man stabs an elderly woman ten times for the sake of a ?450 debt. But why would he commit such a brutal murder over a petty sum, when he has a girlfriend and a child at home? How much could he lose when there is already so little to start with? Centring on a perpetrator and a victim who remain nameless - who are nobodies but could be anybody - Offenses unfolds as a contemporary parable exploring the biases and barriers built into the legal system. Blending expertise in criminal law with her signature knife-edge prose, Constance Debré probes the intricacies of crime, punishment and accountability in this propulsive tale.","brand":"Profile Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57053705339215,"sku":"9781805221081","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/0372\/8217\/files\/9781805221081_1-offenses.jpg?v=1771476219","url":"https:\/\/www.suomalainen.com\/products\/offenses","provider":"Suomalainen.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
