Description

When Bertie Wooster is ordered to the country to recover from an alarming rash, he expects a quiet retreat—only to find himself swept into Aunt Dahlia’s latest scheme at Maiden Eggesford. Determined to win a wager, she sets her sights on “nobbling” a horse, while Bertie’s own romantic prospects take an even more alarming turn when Vanessa Cook decides she’s ready to marry him. As plans collide with local characters, misunderstandings multiply, and Bertie’s carefully managed respectability is repeatedly tested, the familiar comic machinery of mistaken identities and escalating complications kicks into high gear. With Wodehouse’s signature lightness of touch and deadpan social satire, this final, fully completed Jeeves-and-Wooster novel delivers a sparkling reprise of the themes of class, propriety, and the chaos that follows when good intentions go hilariously awry.
