«Rumpole on Trial» is a collection of mystery and humour stories by John Mortimer, published by Penguin in paperback (256 pages, in English).
The dishevelled lawyer Horace Rumpole, fond of claret and Wordsworth, returns in seven humorous stories. The fearsome Timsons appear accused of devil worship; Erskine-Brown faces a charge of sexual harassment; Judge Oliphant faces uncomfortable truths; and Rumpole himself is threatened with domestic life.
This work belongs to the Rumpole of the Bailey series, of which it is the ninth instalment, and was originally published in 1992.
For those who enjoy mystery stories with a humorous tone and followers of the Rumpole series.
