Rumpole and the Paper Crown | A New Old Bailey Case

Rumpole and the Paper Crown | A New Old Bailey Case When a local political dinner ends with a councillor’s sudden collapse and a locked folder of confidential constituency secrets vanishes, the police seize the nearest timid suspect. Horace Rumpole is briefed to defend Peter Lyle, a junior researcher whose only “crime” was fetching paper crowns for a raffle. With She Who Must Be Obeyed urging respectability, Claude Erskine-Brown thundering for the Crown, and Inspector Sneed smelling a cover-up, Rumpole follows the evidence the police ignored: the medical truth, a reluctant kitchen witness, and a corridor camera that never blinks. In the Old Bailey, one small contradiction is worth a hundred headlines… and the Crown’s finest may turn out to be made of cardboard. Listen, settle in, and let the Old Bailey speak. 00:00:00 The Invitation to Respectability 00:11:46 The Dinner of Good Intentions 00:24:17 The Interview Under Caution 00:36:19 The Mortuary and the Locked Folder 00:47:16 The Heart and the Hatbox 00:57:42 The Porter Who Knew Too Much 01:09:28 The Camera That Would Not Blink 01:20:19 The Suggestion of Remorse 01:30:31 The Corridor Exhibit 01:42:53 The Crown in the Hatbox Old Bailey Stories is your home for classic, BBC-style legal mysteries told in rich, audiobook-ready prose.
