Synopsis
The most beloved barrister ever to sway a jury--or savor a claret--is back on the case, in an engaging new collection of stories. With his passion for Wordsworth, his kindly disposition toward the underdog, and a nose equally sensitive to wrongdoing and fine wine, the disheveled Horace Rumpole has become "one of the immortals of mystery fiction" (San Francisco Chronicle).“Rumpole and the Children of the Devil”“Rumpole and the Eternal Triangle”“Rumpole and the Miscarriage of Justice”“Rumpole and the Family Pride”“Rumpole and the Soothsayer”“Rumpole and the Reform of Joby Jonson”“Rumpole on Trial”

From AudioFile
Actor Leo McKern, who played Rumpole on the PBS series, may have died, but the world still has a remarkable interpretation of the Old Bailey defender--in Timothy West's narration. The stories in this volume are familiar from the "Rumpole of the Bailey" TV series, but they're still a treat, not just for the courtroom drama, but also for Rumpole's deft handling of office conflicts. The story line weaves through the seven mysteries, kicking off with a member of the Timson clan falsely accused of devil worship, sending Rumpole into a hostile child welfare court, and ending with Rumpole facing charges of unethical conduct.
