| Phil Figgwiggin, QC enlists the help of the rough and ever ready Mike Fowler in a battle to keep two clients out of jail: a call girl wanted by the police because of a dead john in a hotel room, and a marijuana grow-operator who's in the RCMP's crosshairs after a major drug heist. As the cases head to court, Figgwiggin sees his chance to challenge Canada's laws on marijuana and prostitution.
Two of Figgwigg's eccentric neighbours, a scrawny poet named Doggerl Don McGraw and Sal Vachon, an itinerant preacher who raises chickens on the rooftop, join a host of unforgettable minor characters in this rollicking prequel to Hal Sisson's popular Figgwiggin and Fowler trilogy. |
