01 | THE ARRIVAL

Ah. You’ve arrived.

We’ve been expecting you.

02 | THE APPOINTMENT

There are one or two matters we should bring to your attention.

All in good time.

03 | THE INCIDENTS

Some matters are best left alone.

Others refuse to be.

The past never rests.

04 | A QUESTION OF TRUST

Or maybe not.

A winner-takes-all contract.

A tale of design plagiarism.

Probate subterfuge.

Contested ownership.

Trespass and treason.

The truth, the whole truth, and nothing like the truth.

05 | A MATTER OF RECORD

The signature alone is never enough.

06 | THE NATURE OF THE BUSINESS

Golf’s own legal-themed mysteries.

A solicitor, not a detective.

And a provincial one at that.

“Murder most foul.”

William Shakespeare, Hamlet

No murders whatsoever.

07 | THE BAINBRIDGE DIARIES

Three generations.

One firm of solicitors.

Six incidents.

And not everything is quite as it seems.

08 | EDWARD BAINBRIDGE

Edward Bainbridge, MC

The gentleman who established this practice in 1921.

A provincial solicitor by profession. A rather inquisitive fellow by nature. A man with clients one might not reasonably expect.

09 | MAURICE BAINBRIDGE

Maurice Bainbridge

Grandson

The present proprietor of Bainbridge & Bainbridge.

A solicitor who inherited rather more than he anticipated.

10 | THE INVITATION

Do take a seat
