Duke in the Suburbs

Duke in the Suburbs
What happens when a duke trades his ancestral estate for a London suburb? Edgar Wallace weaves a delightfully improbable tale of American nobility transplanted into English middle-class life. The Duke de Montvillier, a title borrowed from French lineage but funded by American dollars, finds himself navigating the respectable sensibilities of Kymott Crescent - a world of tea parties, neighborly gossip, and precisely mowed lawns. His mysterious past haunts him still, and when old enemies surface in this most unlikely of battlegrounds, the quiet streets become a theater of suspense. Wallace, master of the thriller, proves he can also skewer the pretensions of high society with razor-sharp wit.
