It was only when his secretary, Woodie, presented him with an apparent real-life miscarriage of justice, that he could be roused to action. The case in question was that of George Edalji, a Parsee solicitor, who was imprisoned for writing obscene letters and killing livestock in Great Wyrley, Staffordshire. George needed Arthur?s help to clear his name. However, as the twists and turns of the case unfold, Arthur himself questions George?s innocence. It is only by finding the true culprit, that Arthur can finally put the case, and his grief, to rest; whilst simultaneously becoming influential in a major reform to the English judicial system.

Arthur & George

Heartbroken following the death of his wife, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes, the world's greatest detective, cannot bring himself to write. When he hears of The Great Wyrley Outrages, Arthur becomes obsessed with solving what he sees as a genuine miscarriage of justice when a indian called George Edaliji was imprisoned for killing livestock. Sir Arthur sets out to prove that racism and corruption led to the wrong man being convicted, but he soon starts to suspect he is being fed lies. Adapted from a novel by celebrated author Julian Barnes and based on real events, Arthur and George has both the finest classic crime fiction and the appeal of a true historical mystery.
