Synopsis

"Facts Concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn and His Family" is a 1920 short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. A chilling example of horror fiction,  the themes revolve around dangerous knowledge, ancestry,  and intolerable truths. This volume is highly recommended for fans of horror and supernatural fiction, and it is not to be missed by fans of Lovecraft's marvellous work. Howard Phillips Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 - March 15, 1937) was an American writer most famous for his contributions to the horror fiction genre. Despite dying in poverty, today he is considered to be among the most important 20th-century horror fiction authors. Other notable works by this author include: "The Call of Cthulhu" (1928), "The Hound" (1924), and "The Temple" (1925). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

    Charlie Walden is the Resident Judge of the Bermondsey Crown Court, where he had hoped for a quiet life, but has found it to be anything but. With the job of balancing the needs of prosecutors, judges, 'Grey Smoothies', the humourless grey-suited civil servants, and the overall needs of a Crown Court he soon finds himself struggling to keep the peace and his own delightful humour.
    Charlie is confronted by a number of topical issues he hadn't anticipated; invited to join the Court of Appeal he finds himself faced with a case involving the 'confusion' of one of his team. In another a teacher must be penalised for defacing a statue, a huge and mysterious cat comes to the rescue in yet another case, and so the harassed Judge must pick his way through this minefield of exasperating cases in order to keep everyone from the cannabis lobby to the anti-slave traders happy with his judgements.
    No hope of a quiet life for Charlie then, but, as ever, he deals with the issues of the day with satirical good humour, insight and wit. Another entertaining and insightful look at the British court system and the long-awaited sole Walden novel.
