Gem Collector
Jimmy Pitt, newly rich from an American inheritance, has barely set foot in England before he's accused of jewel theft, blackmailed by a policeman, and falling hopelessly in love with the wrong girl. Mary, daughter of a retired detective inspector, is perfectly delightful and perfectly impossible: she won't look at Jimmy twice while she believes him to be a common thief. To win her, he'll need to unmask the real gem collector, outwit a scheming aristocrat, and prove himself worthy of an English rose. Set among country houses and London clubs, this is Wodehouse at his most effervescent: a world where misunderstandings pile high,自尊心 hangs by a thread, and love is worth any amount of criminal suspicion. The gems are the MacGuffin; the romance is the prize.
