Jack, Knave and Fool is the fifth historical mystery novel about Sir John Fielding by Bruce Alexander.
Sir John treats his household to a performance of Händel's music, but murder introduces a discordant note. Meanwhile, a runaway reprobate and a bodiless head present other problems to the magistrate.
