'Geoff Robertson was born in Australia, bu came to London in 1970. He made his name as the fearless defender of Oz magazine at the celebrated trial and went on to engage in some of the most newsworthy cases in recent history. He has defended John Stonehouse, Cynthia Payne, Salman Rushdie, Kate Adie, Arthur Scargill, Daniel Sullivan, Gay News, 'The Romans of Britain', 'Niggaz with Attitude', and a pair of foetal earrings. The book includes accounts of recent cases including the defence of a West London gym owner against the Prince of Wales, the Matrix Churchill affair, and the defence of the Guardian in the cash-for-questions affair. Hugely readable, funny, scandalous, revelator, this will become one of the great books about the law. ' (Publication summary)

1 1 y separately published work icon Dragonsleep A. G. Paradissis , New York (City) : Vantage Press , 1995 Z1370825 1995 single work novella mystery The year is 1931 in Chiang Kai-Shek's nationalist China Commander Peter McLean is on shore leave when he is suddenly summoned by the admiral and assigned the task of locating six U. S. Navy deserters suspected of opium trafficking. Setting himself up as a businessman in the silk trade, Peter hires the enigmatic Clio as his secretary. Then a strange U.S. heavy cruiser, armed with unfamiliar weaponry, appears in the harbor, identifying itself as the Jackson from the year 1987. A time warp, it would seem, has caused it to slip into prewar Chinese waters. Though the crew of the Jackson know what the future holds, they do not know if they can alter it or even whether their very appearance has had an irrevocable effect. Particularly interested is young Lieutenant Andrew Mclean, who seems to take a personal interest in Peter's life - and in his relationship with Clio. An evocative love story, combining romance with the sinister allure of the seamier side of the orient, Dragonsleep, by author A. G. Paradissis, will fascinate all those who enjoy a good mystery. (Publisher's blurb on back cover).
