Overview

A well-meaning young gentleman drifts from clubland to country houses with the confidence of a man who has never met consequences. Unfortunately, consequences keep making appointments with him-often involving suspicious uncles, formidable aunts, and engagements that appear out of thin air. When plans collapse, a calm valet applies quiet logic, impeccable timing, and the occasional strategic lie to restore dignity before the next social explosion. But even the neatest rescue can't prevent new mix-ups from arriving by telegram, by doorstep, or by the nearest person holding a grudge. A brisk set of comic tales where small mistakes snowball into elaborate disasters, and a polished surface hides the frantic scramble underneath.
