Publisher's Note
"The Third Rumpole Omnibus" features nineteen brilliant tales of the beloved barrister Rumpole--"simply one of the great fictional characters of modern English literature" (Marcel Berlins, "The Sunday Times") "who's as much a detective as Sherlock Holmes or Hercule Poirot" ("The Boston Sunday Globe").

This compilation of witty mysteries captures John Mortimer’s deft writing. Rumpole à la Carte, a delightful discourse on the British legal system, takes us from a restaurant battle over Rumpole’s mashed spuds to a confrontation with a detective-novelist on a ship. The zany yarns of Rumpole on Trial are ingenious: devil worshippers, Juvenile Court, a mysterious seductress searching for a barrister to defend her husband for a murder not yet committed, and courtroom strategies a little too lunatic force Rumpole to face the Disciplinary Committee of the Bar Council. Rumpole and the Angel of Death offers a comic commentary on cruelty to animals, human rights, and the fallibility of the justice system. The Third Rumpole Omnibus promises insight and laughter from the barrister who’s "as much a detective as Sherlock Holmes or Herdule Poirot" (The Boston Sunday Globe). Over a million copies sold worldwide. Rumpole was a popular program on PBS’s Mystery! for many years.
