Rumpole of the Bailey: Retirement on the hottest coast of the Former Colonies, at Hilda's behest, is not proving to be Rumpole's cup of tea or his glass of Pommeroy's. Lying on a Florida beach ogling the girls is getting to be a bore, and then the chance of a murder case in London turning on bloodstains (Rumpole's favourite kind) comes up, and the game's afoot. The old boy finds he has to inveigle himself back into his old Chambers in Equity Court (which are getting along very comfortably without him) while at the same time dealing with a dangerous cult, but he feels he's home. Now what does the future hold?
