The next novel in the Rumpole series from the beloved and bestselling master of the court.

The Rumpole novels have garnered legions of fans who show no sign of abandoning their favourite curmudgeonly British barrister.

Now in Rumpole Misbehaves, our hero takes on nothing less than the New Labour government when their ridiculous new Anti- Social Behavior Orders land a Timson child in front of the bench for playing soccer on a posh London street. However, Rumpole quickly discovers that the complainant is hiding some nefarious secrets of her own.

As he investigates the murder of a prostitute with links to white slavery and unscrupulous dealings in a government department, Rumpole must also wrangle with his fellow barristers as they threaten him with an ASBO for bringing food, wine, and small cigars into his room in chambers.

Good news for the many Rumpole fans who have grown to love the wine-sipping, cigar-smoking barrister whose mantra has never changed: ?Innocent until proven guilty.? ? ?Craig Wilson, "USA Today"
