A woman's dismembered corpse is discovered in a suitcase, and police quickly link the victim back to their chief suspect: her husband, Doctor Ibraham Aziz. His wife had been planning to leave him, so he has clear motive. Barrister Arthur Skelton is asked to represent the accused, and though all believe the case to be hopeless, he soon suspects there may be more to the victim s death. Aided by his loyal clerk Edgar, Skelton soon finds himself seeking justice for both victim and defendant. Can he convince a jury of Aziz s innocence before the judge condemns him to the gallows?

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. A woman's dismembered corpse is discovered in a suitcase, and police quickly identify her husband, Doctor Ibrahim Aziz, as their chief suspect. Incriminating evidence is discovered at his home and his wife was rumoured to be having an affair, giving him clear motive. With his reputation for winning hopeless cases, barrister Arthur Skelton is asked to represent the accused. Though Aziz's guilt does not seem to be in doubt, a question of diplomacy and misplaced larvae soon lead Skelton to suspect there may be more to the victim's death. Aided by his loyal clerk Edgar, Skelton soon finds himself seeking justice for both victim and defendant. But can he uncover the truth before an innocent man is put on trial and condemned to the gallows? The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
