Delightful

If you are a fan of John Mortimer or saw the Rumpole series starring Leo McKern, you will love this audio book. And if you haven't met Rumpole before, maybe the time is now. He will lighten your mood at a time when there is far too much depressing news, and even more depressing stories around. Rumpole always brings joy and laughter with him when he enters a room.
