Publisher's Synopsis
An accused husband, sloppy police investigations, a pear with peel - and the first case for Lord Gerald
Renowned lawyer Floyd Abercrombie hires Gerald because he is convinced of the innocence of his client Peter Moore. He is accused of cold-bloodedly murdering his wife - but he professes his innocence. The police investigations leave much to be desired. So Gerald takes on the case. Soon, cracks appear in the prosecution's case, and the deeper Gerald digs, the more inconsistencies come to light.
