Max Standen is a provincial lawyer in a dusty and disorganised practice. Both he and the business are, frankly, past their prime. But now that his partner Giles Furnell has been suspended, Max must tackle an array of bizarre and often outrageous legal cases on his own. With a client who is supposed to be dead but isn't, a malicious tattoo artist with a hate for women, and the ongoing dodgy antics of a local Premier League Football Club, Max has his hands full. What he really needs is a more-than-capable assistant. And that assistant comes in the form of Tracey, a single mum and a feisty, newly qualified solicitor. Not only does Tracey make an impression on the clients, she makes an impression on Max too. But will Max be able to keep her, when the incompetent and snobbish Giles Furnell is intent on returning? What can be done?
"Alex French's first novel is a great achievement - its skilful play on words and many laugh-out-loud moments will remain with you long after you've finished reading the book." - Pat Sumner, Editor & Writer
