A new edition of the Arthur Ellis Award winning crime novel Arthur Beauchamp, the scholarly, selfdoubting legend of the B.C. criminal bar, is enjoying his retirement on B.C.s Garibaldi Island when he is dragged back to court to defend an old client. Nick The Owl Faloon, one of the worlds top jewel thieves, has been accused of raping and murdering a psychologist. Beauchamp has scarcely registered how unlikely it is that the rascally Faloon could commit a savage murder when his own personal life takes an abrupt turn. His new wife, Margaret Blake, organic farmer and environmental activist, has taken up residence 50 feet above ground in a tree of an oldgrowth forest that she is determined to save for the eagles and from the loggers. Beauchamp shuttles between Vancouver and the island, doing what he can to defend Faloon, save the forest, and rescue his wife. Part courtroom thriller, part classic whodunit, April Fool sees Deverell writing at the top of his form, with a big dollop of humour.
