Law and Peace
Law and Peace is the second novel in The BabyBarista Files and was published in 2011. It is the sequel to Law and Disorder which was described by broadcaster Jeremy Vine as "a wonderful, racing read - well-drawn, smartly plotted and laugh out loud" and by The Times as "a cross between The Talented Mr Ripley, Rumpole and Bridget Jones’s Diary". The books are based upon this blog which appeared on The Times for three years and now appears on The Guardian and which was described by The Lawyer as "genius". The books are available on amazon. You can also listen to 'Law and Disorder' read by Tim Kevan at www.audible.co.uk.
THE MAIN CHARACTERS
PanicStricken

A new character who's desperate for a training contract but has just been demoted from minimum wage legal assistant to unpaid intern
OldSmoothie
Think Peter Bowles in To The Manor Born and Milk Tray Man, but not quite. Once successful barrister now put out to graze as a committee man.
Follow BabyBarista's adventures with the ICLR
TheCreep
Jumped up little twerp who sucks up to the big beasts in chambers and struts around as if he's really something when actually he's not.
SlipperySlope

Solicitor skilled in the art of creative billing. Has the airs and graces of a country squire but is more a cross between Arthur Daley and Boycie from 'Only Fools and Horses'.
Smutton

Brassy to UpTights’s classy and yet still, somehow, sexy.
NurserySlope

Solicitor who is SlipperySlope's neice. Skis, rides and looks like a horse.
JetSet

A new solicitor character who's got a training contract and lords it over PanicStricken. She's wealthy, well- connected and spends most weekends either skiing or clubbing abroad.
ScandalMonger
Ruthless PR guru who has become one of BabyB's secret litigation weapons
BigMouth
Pompous Tory MP stuck on the backbenches like a piece of old chewing gum
BusyBody
A whirlwind of interference with a good heart and always up for a fight, particularly with OldSmoothie.
TopFirst
BabyB’s sworn enemy and former fellow pupil
BabyBarista
A young Flashman meets Rumpole meets Francis Urquart for the 21st century
OldFatherTime
A whisper on the wind, Highlander-type figure who is older than time itself
TheVamp
Tenant in chambers and a walking Carry On film of an innuendo
OldRuin
How a barrister should be. Dumbledore meets Clarence, the angel in Its a Wonderful Life. BabyB’s redemption.
TheBusker
Barrister of ten years call with the integrity and decency of OldRuin. Very laid back in his approach to both court and life. Admired by BabyB.
TheBoss
BabyB’s ex-pupilmaster. Unscrupulous, spineless coward.
HeadClerk
The real power in chambers. All seeing, all knowing.
PupilFodder
Learner Barrister foisted upon his unsuspecting client who gets shredded in court
UpTights
BabyB’s pupilmistress for his second six months who was almost called BoTucks for the work she’s had done. Insists on boundaries and personal space. Has ‘issues’.
JudgeJewellery
Judge with penchant for stealing high street trinkets
