Antony Maitland is sent by his uncle to pick up some legal papers from a fellow solicitor's office. When he gets there, he finds the lawyer slumped over his desk, a knife in his back.
Early suspicion falls on a friend of his, the dead man's law partner. But instead, the father of another friend is arrested. It seems he was seen leaving the office. But Antony is a witness to the contrary. And the outcome of this trial will also decide the outcome of Antony's future career.
I enjoyed this one. This first book introduces Margaret Hamilton, future friend of the Maitlands, and the Maitland household as well. Really good.
