Dispatches from the Dark Side: On Torture and the Death of Justice, a collection of her essays for the London Review of Books, was published in 2010. Of her defence of Muslim suspects accused of terrorism, Peirce has said:

We have lost our way in this country. We have entered a new dark age of injustice and it is frightening that we are overwhelmed by it. I know I am representing innocent people; innocent people who know that a jury they face will inevitably be predisposed to find them guilty.
