YMMV / Riotous Assembly

• Recycled Script: A plot device from this novel is used again, several years later, for Wilt (1976). A man arrested by incompetent and largely useless police investigators and subjected to low-level torture, who is innocent of a crime, realises the only way forward is to create a confession which is good enough to fool the police - who are willing to accept a confesssion and aren't prepared to look too closely at it - whilst being, at the same time, so wildly preposterous that any rational court would throw it out. Unfortunately for Bishop Hazelstone, he is living in South Africa in The Apartheid Era. In his case, a sane and rational court is not a possibility.
