Old Uncle William Cassell had come back to England after nearly twenty years. His return to the family home in Wimbledon brought a lovely reunion at tea time… and a fatal bullet in the back after dinner. Now his great-nephew Paul stood accused of the crime… found with the smoking gun in his hands and a dazed look in his eyes. Young Paul felt caught in a nightmare, sure he was sleepwalking when the deed was done, unsure of his own innocence or guilt. But Antony Maitland’s famous barrister uncle, Sir Nicholas Harding, would never argue somnambulism as a defense for murder. The plea must be “not guilty”, and it was Antony’s job to prove it… in an intriguing case where inquiries into old acts of madness may uncover a new killer in the family. (Publisher’s description)
