      About This Book

      Anti-Social Behavior Orders, commonly known as ASBOs, are the New Labour government's pride and joy. This, of course, raises the wrath of everyone's favorite barrister, Horace Rumpole, when he is called upon to defend a Timson child who has earned an ASBO merely for playing soccer on a posh London street. However, Rumpole quickly discovers that complainant is hiding some nefarious secrets of her own. As he investigates the murder of a prostitute with links to white slavery and unscrupulous dealings in a government department, Rumpole must also wrangle with his fellow barristers as they threaten him with an ASBO for bringing food, wine, and small cigars into his room in chambers.
