Description
A chance encounter at the dentist sets off a wildly improbable chain of events when a bratty Hollywood child star and an English aristocrat swap souls—leaving each trapped in the other’s life and forced to navigate unfamiliar worlds. As Reggie’s carefully arranged existence collides with the chaos of Los Angeles, the story follows his escalating trials and tribulations, while his counterpart in Reggie’s body roams Hollywood with a mission that turns “justice” into pure farce. With Wodehouse’s signature wit, brisk pacing, and affectionate satire of class, celebrity, and social performance, the novel turns identity and etiquette into a nonstop engine of comedy. Expect misunderstandings, escalating schemes, and a delightfully skewed look at what happens when the wrong person gets the right body at exactly the wrong time.
