Lawyer DeAnne Nicoloso startling debut novel
Photo: Supplied When a little girl explains to her two best friends what her Great Uncle has been doing to her - they wrestle with what to do. In the end, they convince her to tell an adult and it goes to the police. But the result - in their eyes - isn't justice. This is the basis of a debut novel called Three Little Vikings from Queenstown-based lawyer DeAnne Nicoloso. Later in life the trio of friends use their various expertise to form a group called Practical Justice - tracking down and punishing sex offenders. Then one hit goes very badly wrong. DeAnne's drawn heavily on her own experiences as a defence barrister for the novel - something that had sat with her for a while, but couldn't be written until raising her eight children got a little calmer.
