Here, collected in book form for the first time, are five delightful tales that capture the beleaguered barrister at his grumpy yet warm-hearted best. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Rumpole isn't particularly fond of Christmas Day--he finds it has a horrible habit of dragging on as \"She Who Must Be Obeyed\" leads him through the usual rituals. But at least the criminal fraternity rarely takes a holiday. Whether it's a suspicious Father Christmas or an unseasonably nasty murder trial, there's always something wonderfully unlawful to liven up Rumpole's dull holiday plans.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"27th Letter Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44105541353517,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/27thletterbooks.com\/products\/rumpole-christmas","provider":"27th Letter Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
