Description

"Ronald Psmith ("the 'p' is silent, as in pshrimp") is always willing to help a damsel in distress. So when he sees Eve Halliday without an umbrella during a downpour, he nobly offers her an umbrella, even though it's one he picks out from the umbrella rack at the Drones Club. Psmith is so besotted with Eve that when Lord Emsworth, her new boss, mistakes him for Ralston McTodd, a poet, Psmith pretends to be him so he can make his way to Blandings Castle and woo her. And so the farce begins: criminals disguised as poets who plan to steal a priceless diamond necklace, a secretary who throws flowerpots through windows, and a nightitme heist that ends in gunplay. How will everything be sorted out? Leave it to Psmith!"--Back cover
