The Cinderella Plan Summary

The Cinderella Plan: A legal thriller with a topical AI twist by Abi Silver

The only thing worse than being found guilty....is being found not guilty. When James Salisbury, the owner of a British car manufacturer, ploughs his `self-drive' car into a young family, the consequences are deadly. Will the car's `black box' reveal what really happened or will the industry, poised to launch these products to an eager public, close ranks to cover things up? James himself faces a personal dilemma. If it is proved that he was driving the car he may go to prison. But if he is found innocent, and the autonomous car is to blame, the business he has spent most of his life building, and his dream of safer transport for all, may collapse. Lawyers Judith Burton and Constance Lamb team up once again, this time to defend a man who may not want to go free, in a case that asks difficult questions about the speed at which technology is taking over our lives.

The Cinderella Plan Reviews

`Was the man in the driving seat or the car itself responsible for the fatal accident? And is it the AI or the flaws of the humans involved in creating it that poses the greater danger? Tense thriller wrought from a cutting-edge subject - Times Crime Club, `Abi Silver has carved a niche exploring the moral and practical issues thrown up by technology, and how the law responds. She is adept at turning complex legal debate into compelling legal thrillers. Expect to deliver a favourable verdict' - Jewish Chronicle, 'More a whatdunnit than a whodunnit... A good story which discusses factual issues society will have to tackle. Previous books by the author have won well-deserved praise' - Law Society Gazette, `A highly complex story which the author expertly unravels...Recommended' - Promoting Crime Fiction, `Interesting, engrossing and a page-turner, The Cinderella Plan is a must-read book of this year' - The Book Decoder
