Both long-term fans of the Rumpole of the Bailey series as well as first-time readers will enjoy diving into this one, the long-awaited and oft-alluded to story of Horace Rumpole's first big case as a barrister in the 1950s. The young lawyer, only recently graduated from Oxford, is faced with quite a challenge: the defense of Simon Jerold, who's been accused of the double murder of his father and his father's war buddy. Despite Jerold's protests of innocence, it looks like an open and shut case...until Rumpole takes over.
