The television series Sergeant Cork has an audience of millions. Now his cases and adventures are adapted to narrative form by a writer who himself created some of the original scripts.
Here is ‘Corky’ at his brilliant best: shrewd, sagacious, unconventional — a man ahead of his time, a liberal in an illiberal age —a man both loved and feared in the London lit by gaslight.
