Kung Fu Cross Examination Techniques
In this fifth installment in the saga of Kort the crow - newbie lawyer often mistaken for an owl due to his chubby physique - we leave the magical/science fiction adventures of the previous books and enter the arena of the courtroom.

Courage and ingenuity are again required to save the day. Inexperienced in legal techniques, Kort seeks out reclusive experts in the field of cross-examination; inscrutable sages who style themselves after masters of the martial arts. Kort's client is a maid accused of murder. With his new-found skills, can he uncover the truth? Now as much a detective as a solicitor, our protagonist is determined to prove his client's innocence - and his own capability. Beatrix Potter meets Sherlock Holmes with a touch of Kill Bill...
