Then again, I&#8217;ve read enough of these to almost be able to predict what&#8217;s going to happen. It&#8217;s very good though, but reminiscent of the Wooster and Jeeves adventure with th cow creamer. Lord Emsworth visits Mr. Peters, a [...]]]></description>

The only thing the same between the two is the bad guy&#8217;s name is Scaramanga, and there&#8217;s an assistant named Goodnight (but [...]]]></description>

It started out well enough then branched into occult stuff which turned out to be a (surprise! NOT!) red herring.

It also depends on whether you&#8217;re red or blue as to which version of events you&#8217;re wont to believe. But this is the story in her words. I have to say, it&#8217;s pretty compelling.
