The stranger who transformed our judicial system. Nazir Afzal knows a lot about the concept of justice. As Chief Prosecutor, his job was to ensure that the most complex, violent, and tragic criminal cases reached the courts and that their perpetrators were convicted. From the Rochdale sexual exploitation case to the first prosecutions for honor crimes and modern slavery, Nazir was at the forefront of the British legal system for decades. But his story begins in Birmingham in the '60s, as a young boy facing racial violence and the tragic death of a young family member - and this is what leads him to his groundbreaking career, allowing him to help communities that the conventional judicial system ignores, giving a voice to the powerless.

An autobiography of struggle and survival as well as crime and punishment, "The Prosecutor" is both an intense look at the judicial system and a powerful story of one man's quest for truth.
