Paperback. Zustand: Good. 314 pages. text lightly tanned, good clean copyPalliser Wentwood is no Jeeves. Unlike P.G. Wodehouse's exemplary butler, Wen twood neither shimmers silently in and out of rooms nor extricates his master fr om impossible scrapes. Instead, he drinks his employer's brandy, pays scant atte ntion to his personal hygiene, and performs his duties in a lackadaisical manner --if he performs them at all.

His plans for doing so involve Hubert Lovelace, a wealthy Anglican priest, and his massive and homely sister, Blanche. By insinuating himself into the Lovelace household, Wentwood hopes, he can work his charms on Blanche and e ventually extract enough cash from her to return to New Zealand.In her fi rst novel, Imogen de la Bere has crafted a wise and charming comedy of manners-- and morals. As the narrative switches back and forth between Palliser in England and his wife, Salome, and children in New Zealand, de la Bere raises the stakes by introducing a potential love interest for the abandoned wife--and an inconve nient case of guilty conscience for the scheming Wentwood. This is an old-fashio ned novel with old-fashioned pleasures: a slightly formal narrative, complex cha racters you come to care about, and a strong story that more than earns its sati sfying ending. --Margaret Prior. …
