| Plot Summary of Blind Justice |

"The first of the Sir John Fielding series which introduces us to the blind magistrate of Bow Street and his young protege, Jeremy Proctor. The setting is 18th Century London and Lord Goodhope has been found murdered in his study in his home behind locked doors. For fans of the Caleb Carr novels, this series is sure to please with a surprising twist which only the most experienced of readers will predict."
