For the first time barrister Antony Maitland can remember, his uncle is ASKING him to become involved in a case. Sir Nicholas has a client being tried for murder, and he's not so sure she did it. Even worse, his junior seems to be falling for her. So he asks his nephew to investigate. Barbara is being charged with killing her sister, Laura. And the more Antony looks into the case, the more suspects he finds. Laura, it seems, wasn't a very likeable woman. But that's not really a motive for murder, is it? The defense is arguing suicide, but not very successfully. And the more Antony digs, the less he finds. It's only by involving a surprise witness that the truth finally comes to light. I really enjoyed this one. The characters were especially well done. Worth looking for. no reviews | add a review

This is an engaging mystery with fun twists, turns, and red herrings, and a satisfying ending. If you like mystery novels, then I don't see how you could go wrong with Antony Maitland and his crotchety uncle.
