Fans of John Mortimer and his popular Rumpole mysteries will enjoy this book, titled: "Quite Honestly". It is a comedy based around tales of the criminal element in society, like the character "Terry Keegan" - and those do-gooders, such as, "Lucinda Purefoy", who try to encourage taking the good and morale path in life. The book is about the relationship between Terry and Lucinda and the hilarious mishaps that befall them.

Another witty book by John Mortimer.

Sir John Clifford Mortimer (21 April 1923 – 16 January 2009) was a British barrister, dramatist, screenwriter and author. Mortimer graduated with a law degree from Oxford in 1943.

He is best known for his short stories about a fictional barrister named Horace Rumpole.

Some commentators have said that the Horace Rumpole character is one of the best creations in all of British popular fiction.

John Mortimer’s character was central to the Thames Television series called “Rumpole of the Bailey”, which was released in December 1975. Australian-born Leo McKern played the character of Rumpole.

The reference to the “Bailey” is to the Old Bailey, which is the Central Criminal Court of England and Wales.

John Mortimer received a knighthood for his services to the arts in 1998.
