When her personal copy of the current Finance Act is found a few metres away from a body, young barrister Julia Larwood finds herself caught up in a complex fight against the Inland Revenue. Set to have a vacation away from her home life and the tax man, Julia takes a trip with her art-loving boyfriend. However, all is not what it seems. Could he in fact be an employee of the establishment she has been trying to escape from? And how did her romantic luxurious holiday end in murder?

Work Description
The witty chronicles of a stable of young London barristers, narrated by their former tutor, an academic scholar of indeterminate gender. These stories are Bertie Wooster only with brains; Rumpole if he were young and good looking; Mary Poppins unencumbered with kiddies. You will laugh.
