Another case for John Mortimer's foxy barrister.

Blurb - If one man can be counted on to fight injustice and insist on a fair and decent trial for everyone, whatever their circumstances, Horace Rumpole is he. So when beautiful Tiffany Khan learns that her husband has been arrested on suspicion of terrorism, she calls on him right away.

Isn't it wonderful that a husband and wife play the husband and wife!
:O)
