About this listen

 As Wodehouse himself once noted, "Blandings has impostors like other houses have mice." On this particular occasion, there are two imposters, both intent on a dangerous enterprise. Lord Emsworth's secretary, the Efficient Baxter, is on the alert and determined to discover what is afoot - despite the distractions caused by the Honorable Freddie Threepwood's hapless affair of the heart.

Freddie is engaged to marry the daughter of a wealthy American who is a passionate collector of ancient Egyptian relics. When one treasure goes missing and a thousand-pound reward is offered for its return, Blandings becomes a madhouse as friends turn rivals in the scramble to retrieve the object.

The Authors note set the tone.. at first, it was a slow start getting to know all the characters.. after which is was a beautiful to go through in record time..

Classic.. and the authors note is a lovely treat.

I loved the book. The narration did make me lose focus at times but it was still overall a good story, nice performance and happy ending.

An interesting book from PGW

This novel introduces us to some of the Blandings quirks. Not as funny as some of the others novels in the series. A fine example of Wodehouse’s craftsmanship at birthing characters. Over all has a feel good, positive vibe

The novel has all the hallmarks of a typical P.G.Woodhouse novel. It’s however not as circuitous as his later series. It’s a great introduction to Blandings Castle cast. Well written and well read. I really appreciated the author’s note at the beginning. One can see his humour as evidenced on his novels even in his commentary like popularity of three name authors. Real fun listen. Would recommend.

Good fun
