A notorious loan shark is shot dead, in broad daylight, right outside the front doors of the Old Bailey. The killer is arrested at the scene and Adrian Stanford is about to take on the toughest case of his career. Can he steer his client past the no-nonsense detective Chief Superintendent 'Iron-Rod' Stokes, hell-bent, in his last case before retirement, in achieving a murder conviction? That's assuming he can keep his client alive long enough in prison for the trial even to go ahead. Can his illustrious defence QC, Patrick 'The Edge' Gorman swerve the case past the acerbic judge known to all as 'Mack The Knife', whose own resolve is being tested to the limit by an adulterous wife? And why is London underworld numero uno Big Jake Davenport showing such a keen interest in the proceedings?
