Richard Beasley is a Sydney barrister who exploded on the Australian literary scene with his first novel "Hell Has Harbour Views". A satirical look at life in a big city law firm, this novel resonated with many a young lawyer and was adapted for TV not long afterwards. After sixteen years and another four books, Richard wrote, "The Burden of Lies", the second in his Peter Tanner series. It's a legal thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat - one that explores the underbelly of Sydney's property development scene and the ethical and moral dilemmas often faced by criminal defence lawyers. A delightfully entertaining interview that will have you chuckling as I did!
