Synopsis

Peter Hitchens argues that modern society has allowed the wicked and violent to operate with unprecedented freedom, reminiscent of the Dickensian era. He contends that current law and order policies jeopardize the freedoms of law-abiding citizens while failing to curb crime. This book challenges readers to consider the difficult choice between the rights of offenders and the liberty of the general populace.
