SynopsisEach evening at the Angler s Nest, sipping scotch and lemon, Mr. Mulliner s tells his stories. His narratives showcase Wodehouse s genius for fetching whimsy and eccentric shenanigans.", There's only one place safe for a lady in danger: right by Sheriff Roan's side - Sheriff Roan Benedict comes from a family of hard-headed men who have a habit of rescuing and falling for equally hard-headed women. And sure enough, he's falling for a woman he just shot. This mysterious stranger helped rob a convenience store. But that doesn't explain the rope burns on her wrists, or her claim that she can't remember what happened. Two things are clear to him. One: she's lying. Two: someone is trying to kill her. There's only one place safe enough for a lady in danger. Right by his side. This is a first time regular print hardcover previously available in a mass market edition., A Mulliner collection A private detective who can make the guilty confess simply by smiling at them. An artist so intimidated by his morally impeccable cat that he feels compelled to wear formal attire at dinner. A devotee of Proust whose life is turned upside down when he inadvertently subscribes to a correspondence course on How to Acquire Complete Self-Confidence and an Iron Will. These are just a few of the many members of the eccentric Mulliner clan whose lives and exploits are laid before the regulars of the Angler's Rest by that doyen of raconteurs, Mr Mulliner, in a series of hilarious and beautifully turned short stories where lunacy and comic exuberance reign supreme.
