Summary:
A phlegmatic London barrister defends one Leonard Vole, a "nice, harmless chap"

who's on trial for the murder of a widow who had taken a shine to him. The circumstantial

evidence against Vole is strong, especially since he's unemployed and stands to inherit

a considerable sum from the victim. And to further complicate the defense,

the only person who can provide an alibi is Vole's wife Christine, who

has agreed to be a witness for the prosecution.

heart condition--which could kill him within five years. Shocked and scared--and getting

sicker all the time--Sam undergoes a transplant, then faces an even more grueling

ordeal as doctors battle to keep his body from rejecting the new organ.
