First edition of Wodehouse’s clever comedic mystery novel. Octavo, original cloth. Very good in a very good dust jacket with some restoration to its spine. Jacket illustration by Frank Ford.
The mystery of a hidden diary causes contention between those who wish to find it in Wodehouse's witty and chaotic novel. As Smedley and Mrs. Cork's butler form a rivalry over the diary, Bill Shannon brings together her young friend, Joe Davenport, and the independent Kay.
