This book was classic Perry Mason with a murder case that involved trust funds and blackmail. Perry Mason is defending a young couple in a case that looked pretty bleak for them, but once he got to the court, he knew exactly how to handle the jury, the judge and the prosecutor. It is obvious that the author knows the rules of law as the trial portion of the book was very realistic and although I had a very good idea of who the real murderer was, the courtroom reveal was dramatic and like the rest of the book, well crafted and clever.
