'An absolute delight' JANICE HALLETT 'A triumph of ingenuity' DAILY MAIL 'I loved it! ... A whiff of Shardlake and a pinch of Rumpole ... a joy' S.J. BENNETT 'A guaranteed page-turner with secrets, twists and turns throughout' WOMAN & HOME When barrister Gabriel Ward steps out of his rooms one sunny May morning in 1901, his mind is so full of his latest case - the disputed authorship of bestselling children's book Millie the Temple Church Mouse - that he scarcely registers the body of the Lord Chief Justice of England on his doorstep. But even he cannot fail to notice the judge's dusty bare feet, in shocking contrast to his flawless evening dress, nor the silver carving knife sticking out of his chest. In the shaded courtyards and ancient buildings of the Inner Temple, the hidden heart of London's legal world, murder has spent centuries confined firmly to the casebooks. Until now. As the police have no authority in the Temple, who better to investigate than a man who has dedicated his life to the law? But Gabriel soon discovers that murder is much messier outside the courtroom - and that behind the Temple's heavy oak doors are stranger secrets than he could ever imagine. Gabriel Ward returns in A CASE OF LIFE AND LIMB - available now! 'A cunning and delightful mystery with rich, wonderful characters and period detail so vivid, you can touch it' IAN MOORE, author of DEATH AND CROISSANTS 'Sir Gabriel Ward KC is endearingly eccentric. Intriguing, engaging, and thoroughly satisfying' T.E. KINSEY, author of A QUIET LIFE IN THE COUNTRY 'A total delight! ... Intelligent, insightful mystery ... all skilfully woven together with a poignant, human story. I devoured it in one sitting!' SARAH YARWOOD-LOVETT, author of A MURDER OF CROWS

Portrait

Sally Smith spent all her working life as a barrister and later King's Counsel in the Inner Temple. After writing a biography of the famous Edwardian barrister, Sir Edward Marshall Hall KC, she retired from the bar to write full time. A Case of Mice and Murder, her first novel, was inspired by the historic surroundings of the Inner Temple in which she still lives and works and by the rich history contained in the Inner Temple archives. A Case of Mice and Murder is the first in a series starring the reluctant sleuth Sir Gabriel Ward KC.
