The quintessential comedy master returns with another tale that will have you laughing out loud and yearning for more.

For Edmund Biffen Christopher, life is about to be very good - assuming he can stay out of trouble. If he can avoid being arrested until his 30th birthday, he will inherit his godfather's millions. The trouble is Biff has a certain proclivity for getting into fisticuffs...particularly with policemen. And he's already nearing 30.

Adding to his troubles is Lord Tilbury, who wants the fortune for himself. If Tilbury can make Biff fall foul of the law, his wish will come true. True to form Wodehouse will see to it that everyone gets what's coming to them one way or another.

Once again you have entered the topsy-turvy joyful world of PG Wodehouse . Of course everything is going to end up just fine but in the process you’re going to be riding the roller coaster of twists and turns. Enjoy!

No Jeeves or Wooster in sight and yet I enjoyed it greatly. These characters were less foolish and not such drains on society as Wooster and friends. I found them more likable and easier to cheer for wholeheartedly. I will always enjoy Jeeves and Wooster, but this was refreshing and fun.

Delightful and charming

This isn't Wodehouse at his best, but it is still better than most other writers put out!
Simon Vance does a credible job as narrator, even if I think Jonathan Cecil is the best.

the story has all the old Wodehouse contrivances; the affable but impecuneas young man about town, the unpleasant rich Lord as a villain, a fortune at stake, etc.

It lands some punches well and typical Wodehousian flairs of prose are always wonderful.

I promise you, get through the 1st chapter. it improves drastically.

Biff stands to inherits millions, provided he can make it to his 30th birthday without getting arrested (something he's had happen frequently up to this point). Lord Tilbury believes the money should be his, so he tries to arrange tussles with the police for poor Biff. A fun, enjoyable tale, and Simon Vance is a master narrator.

Very good Wodehouse tale, excellent narration
