The Third Rumpole Omnibus: Rumpole and the Age of Miracles, Rumpole a LA Carte, Rumpole and the Angel of Death
- Book Review,
by John Mortimer


Book Description
This compilation of witty mysteries captures John Mortimer's deft writing. Rumpole 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 justicesystem. 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
