From Goodreads Review 1: Throughout my career, particularly in relation to how it was expressed in the case of Bernie Johnston, In Lincoln’s Shadow has been of much significance for me. I can understand her frustrations with the legal system that does not care about the innocent, because I feel the same on my job every day. This is the reason why the book also presents the psychological aspect, which in this case is the burden of working in child protection, which especially deals with how justice loving Bernie had to quit her job. The confinement was unbearable and so was the experience watching her interact with of the same detective Steffen Blaine who was a tortured soul courtesy of his past. From the narrative, a certain degree of intimacy is brought into the story of how Steffen battling his personal demons engages with and quotes Lincoln. The work does great justice to depicting the professional challenges that come with working with distressed family settings as well as the emotional stress that one has to endure working in such cases. And this is a call to all social workers that as much as action has to be taken towards justice, there is still an uphill task ahead and there is need to be strong and endure the many obstacles.
