Rumpole and the Locked Lavatory | A Cozy Old Bailey Mystery

In the middle of a respectable chambers dinner at Three Equity Court, a pompous property solicitor is found dead in a robing-room lavatory — and the terrified cleaner, Alfie Munday, is charged with manslaughter.
Rumpole refuses the easy way out. With cheap claret, a faulty latch, a neglected maintenance log, and a pathologist’s quiet truth, he takes the fight to the Old Bailey and exposes the most dangerous weapon of all: penny-pinching respectability. Set in late twentieth-century London, this is a lost-style Rumpole case full of dry wit, courtroom turns, and humane justice.
