Description
Harry Charlton was alleged to have sold top secret information to the Russians. The case rested on three main items: an overheard conversation, some incriminating papers found in his flat and a large payment into his bank account. Anthony Maitland's clerk had already refused the brief but a young friend of Maitland's persuaded him to change his mind. He still wasn't happy about the case, especially as his client might be guilty of treason and then murder was added to treason.
