Witness for the Prosecution (1924)

Looking forward to reading it, having loved the portrayal by Marlene Dietrich of the wife who loved her husband, not realising he wasn't merely the criminal but intended to cheat her after she'd saved his life - and the superb lawyer who, having realised she'd conned him, turns to save her, nevertheless, knowing she was innocent and her being espxecuted for a murder committed by the husband had been his plan all along!

Towards Zero
After well over four decades, having forgotten most of it including the name, one still vividly recalls the old woman brutally murdered, the door locked from within, the window on the river but high up, the impossibility of someone climbing in to bludgeon her because there was no space, the tennis player with a powerful back hand, or was it a lefty?
