The son of a barrister, Trollope was fascinated by both the ideal of justice and the workings of legal system. This masterpiece of legal fiction and dark comedy explores the conflict between law and justice.
This is one of my favorite Trollopes (and I've read 35 so far)! It is witty, clever and has plot twists worthy of the best suspense writers. This one deals with one of Trollope's favorite topics -- the law -- with the usual romantic crises thrown in, of course. Excellent book and I highly recommend it.
