About this audiobook
A holiday to New York takes an unexpected turn when an impeccably dressed English gentleman decides to take over a struggling family magazine. He swiftly pivots the publication's focus from cozy domestic tips to aggressive investigative journalism, taking on corrupt slumlords and violent street gangs. Despite the very real danger of flying bullets, he maintains his unflappable composure and relentless flow of sophisticated nonsense. It is an extraordinary blend of gritty urban crime and high-society hilarity.
