I think he’s been around for a while but this is my first “Arthur Beauchamp” mystery – Arthur is a witty, dissipated, lovable lawyer who is revisiting a case that went awry when he was but 25 (he’s now 70’ish). The case centres around what Arthur believes was a wrongful conviction but we’re never quite certain about that. Thought I had it figured out several times but I didn’t (kinda like me and the rubrics cube!) – the ending was satisfying and plausible indeed.
