They were madly in love. The perfect couple. That was the story everyone in South River believed...until Gin Talcott and Adam Archer are found shot in their bed. Adam is dead at the scene. Gin is fighting for her life. Detectives Greta Jessup and Finn Pate are assigned to the case. Greta has a long history with Gin’s first husband, Eddie, and is determined to protect his 18-year-old twins. Piper discovered the bodies. Daniel is missing—and so is Adam’s gun.

Historia
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
In The Worst of You, just-wed architects Timo and Nia flee a murder scene, setting in motion a chain reaction of lies and betrayals that threaten to unravel everything they have built together. Twisted and propulsive, this thriller is told from the alternating perspectives of the couple and those close to them on Williwaw Island, each with their own motive to use the outcome of the murder case to their advantage. When a huge storm sweeps up the coast, trapping everyone on tiny Williwaw Island, it’s a race against time—and the elements — to stop the murderer from striking again.

Photographer Isla Wilson is thrilled she's landed her dream job, but the clients who hired her are getting stranger by the day. It sounded so perfect—a month's assignment at the lush Scottish Highlands property of architect Alban McGregor, and his wife, Jessica. But in the woods, there's a playhouse with a chilling history. Two years ago, the McGregors' daughter Elodie was abducted and then died in that playhouse. The townspeople insist her abductor had to be a stranger in their town. Alban refuses to knock the playhouse down, even keeping a picture of it on his wall.

Buckhead isn’t a place you live, it’s a place you survive. And that applies even to the wealthy housewives that have it all. Fancy cars, designer clothes, and daily salon appointments aren’t nearly enough to keep them fulfilled and happy. Because in this town, privilege and opulence go hand in hand with betrayal and revenge. Jenny, the owner of Glow, an exclusive membership-only beauty salon, knows that better than anyone, because she knows everything about these housewives—down to each individual strand of hair.

Horace Rumpole, the irreverent, iconoclastic, claret-swilling, poetry-spouting barrister at law, is among the most beloved characters of English crime literature. He is not a particularly gifted attorney, nor is he particularly fond of the law by courts if it comes to that, but he’d rather be swinging at a case than bowing to his wife Hilda, She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed.

Rumpole, the Old Darling
Like your most comfortable pair of bedroom slippers, or well worn house robe, Horace Rumpole haunts the passages of your mind with humor, wisdom, and a biting wit. He tempers justice with both mercy and a healthy dose of the ironic, balancing society’s hypocritical puritanism with pragmatic recognition of the absurd. Altogether cracking good tales.

A legal classic
A great collection of stories. A wonderful introduction to the great Rumpole. They define his character.

Loveably Curmudgeon
Rumpole continues with his curmudgeonly ways, both inside the courtroom and out. This is a great collection of Rumpole tales.
Patrick Tull does a fine job narrating.

Marvelous.
The stories in this collection are excellent. As is Mr. Tull’s narration, I only wish the late Leo McKern had recorded some of the unabridged stories.

There's no one like Rumpole!
British humor served up by John Mortimer using Rumpole defending the British ne'er do well in the Bailey and narrated by Patrick Tull. Can't do better than this when you need a book that will make you giggle and scratch your pate at the same time!

Just When You're Really Depressed
by the story, Mortimer pulls it out of the bag and ends on a bright spot. You have to let it build. The stories are solid. And I have to come clean, I'm a total Patrick Tull fan-girl, but after hearing him read Dickens, Peters, and O'Brian, I'm just amazed at his ability to provide a totally clean slate for Rumpole. He doesn't read like Aubrey or Brother Cadfael. He's unmistakable as Rumpole. Tull's talent was extraordinary. Put Mortimer and Tull together and, well, there it is. A fully realized novel.

Ahhhhh....these are fun stories!!!
Writen with wit and humor. John Mortimer narrates these stories in his magnificent voice. He, of course, played the role of Rumpole in the BBC series.
