About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Vernon Alverstoke sees no reason to put himself out for anyone.

But when a distant connection asks for help, he is quickly plunged into one drama after another by the disorderly Merriville family.

Surprisingly, he finds himself far from bored - especially when he encounters their strong-minded daughter, Frederica.

However, she seems far more concerned with her family's welfare than his romantic advances....

Critic Reviews

"Absolutely delicious tales of Regency heroes.... Utter, immersive escapism." (Sophie Kinsella)

"I could mainline Heyer's Regency romances until the end of time and still not get bored.... Georgette Heyer is perfect lockdown escapism." (India Knight)

"One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's." (Joanne Harris)

Joe's Jameson, I think, is that rare non-female narrator that doesn't make the women he voices sound shrill or bleating! His 'Felix' was particularly engaging. This is a wonderful Heyer and Joe Jameson does it full justice.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

One of my favourite Georgette Heyer books. Awesome characters and laugh out loud story line. The narration is one of the better ones for the Georgette Heyer books but can get a bit draggy in some parts. Otherwise an easy listen.

Great character build up, humour and wit in every sentence. Great story and great storytelling. Enjoyed every moment of the Audiobook.

Wonderfully written
