Description

'A fruity, foxy masterpiece, defender of our wilting faith in mankind' Sunday TimesHorace Rumpole is in a strange state that could only be described as a kind of air-conditioned purgatory: he has retired to Florida with his wife, Hilda (She Who Must Be Obeyed).

It is safely assumed the Old Bailey hack's wig has been hung up for good.

But when a rather unkempt civil servant is mixed up in the mysterious death of a minor aristocrat, Rumpole seizes the opportunity to escape a life of leisure.

He is soon back in court (via a budget airline) to do battle once more with Judge 'Mad Bull' Bullingham.
