Summary
Why is our criminal justice system so bad at protecting women from violence?
Reporting from the heart of the courtroom, this book sees barrister Harriet Johnson dissect the problems in our policing, laws and culture. How can we hold the police accountable, take stalking seriously and make justice a reality for sexual assault survivors?
This is an unforgettable case for change and a clear plan of how we can make it happen.
Critic reviews
"Enough is an urgent and vital call to arms that compassionately and forensically exposes the many ways in which the way we do criminal justice fails women, and offers practical and clear-sighted solutions on how to inject meaningful change into a legal system built by men, for men. Powerfully argued and compellingly written, this is an outstanding debut from Harriet Johnson. It should be read by everybody involved in criminal justice." (The Secret Barrister)
"Our legal system is failing women. There is a powerful omerta against insiders saying so but things will only get better if they do. A brave and vital book." (Jolyon Maugham QC, founder of the Good Law Project)
"Comes the hour. Comes the book! Here it is—a brilliant, forensic exposure of why women cannot get justice. Harriet Johnson is a wonderful lawyer who captures with rapier precision the way law sustains patriarchy, fosters misogyny and blocks radical change. Women have definitely had ENOUGH." (Baroness Helena Kennedy QC, author of Misjustice)

We all need to hear this.
Chock full of insight and knowledge of the systems (most of all the police, legal and justice systems) upon which our society relies for our moral compass, and revelations of the weaknesses and flaws in these systems distorting/obscuring the values upon which we base our attitudes and behaviours. A mind-blowing and life-changing book. A must-read.

Incredible, powerful, necessary
An incredible and important read for everyone, particularly men. We all know what she writes about, but we don’t *know* what she writes about. Educate, organise, uplift and enact change. Thank you Harriet.
