As you'd expect from an ex-King's Counsel, her language is as rich as it is precise ... Topsy Tillotson is a heroine I thoroughly enjoyed rooting for, and the court scenes are a heart-in-mouth highlight.

BENNET'A cunning and delightful mystery with rich, wonderful characters and period detail so vivid, you can touch it' IAN MOOREA Case of Life and Limb1901. Gabriel Ward KC is hard at work on a thorny libel case involving London's most famous music hall star and its most notorious tabloid newspaper, but the Inner Temple remains as quiet and calm as ever. Quiet, that is, until the mummified hand arrives in the post...While the hand's recipient, Temple Treasurer Sir William Waring, is rightfully shaken, Gabriel is filled with curiosity. Who would want to send such a thing? And why? But as more parcels arrive - one with fatal consequences - Gabriel realises that it is not Sir William who is the target, but the Temple itself.Someone is holding a grudge that has led to at least one death. It is up to Gabriel, and Constable Wright of the City of London Police, to find out who before the body count gets any higher. The game's afoot...Sally SmithSally Smith spent all her working life as a barrister and later KC in the Inner Temple. After writing a biography of the Edwardian barrister Sir Edward Marshall Hall KC, she retired from the bar to write full time. A Case of Mice and M**der, her first novel, was inspired by the historic surroundings of the Inner Temple in which she still lives and works and is the first in a series starring the reluctant sleuth Sir Gabriel Ward KC. A Case of Mice and M**der was longlisted for the 2025 CWA Whodunnit and Historical Daggers. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/b0a7b710-199c-11f1-8747-1187d79d3166-rimg-w592-h740-dcf0e8c8-gmir.jpg Some of the ticket options that don’t include the author’s book, or are specially priced for couples, are limited in number and can sell out quickly.
