When Steve and his partner Wilf set up their legal practice, they aren't expecting the high life - 1980s Rotherham Magistrate's Court is no Old Bailey. But they aren't expecting quite such weird and wonderful lowlifes, either…

Boozers, Ballcocks & Bail is the first of larger-than-life criminal lawyer Steve Smith's comic legal series. He recounts with gusto his sometimes hilarious, sometimes tragic and sometimes plain bizarre experiences both in and outside the criminal justice system, and the colourful characters he meets along the way. From incurably larcenous but oddly likeable Jack Heptenstall to high-class hooker Suzi Deville and the Bird Man of Rotherham - not to mention Spider, Pagey and an incontinent chimpanzee - Steve depicts human nature in all its variety.
