Crypt currency is the future. The enchantments are reliable. The aethernet infrastructure is sound.

All of the big crypt magnates say so.

Former DCI Dan Armstrong has been living and working in Florence for nearly three years—yet somehow, Rome has always eluded him. That is, until glamorous TV celebrity Tamsin Goodfaith turns up with a request he can't refuse: investigate her uncle's suspicious death in the Eternal City. Philip Hastings was a billionaire financier, found dead at his magnificent—if slightly spooky—medieval castle in the Roman hills. Dan and his faithful canine companion, Oscar, soon find themselves surrounded by luxury, secrets and more suspects than sightseeing opportunities.

When the Girls accept a very strange invitation to a lavish party on a remote island estate, they find that murder has a way of ruining even the most glamorous of evenings. The invite delivered to 6151 Richmond Street was short on details, only promising to celebrate “the greatest artist of the century” and accompanied by a jewel-encrusted brooch—the whole package a brand of mysterious opulence that another Saturday night of gin rummy just can’t match.

Some problems announce themselves loudly. Others arrive quietly with tea, civility, and a completely ruined afternoon. In Fixing it for Freddie, P. G. Wodehouse demonstrates that helping a friend is rarely a straightforward moral gesture—it is more often a carefully staged descent into social confusion. Freddie, suffering from a bruised heart and a spectacular lack of judgment, requires assistance of the delicate kind.

There are few safer places in literature than the world of P. G. Wodehouse — unless, of course, Bertie Wooster has decided to solve somebody's problem personally. Carry On, Jeeves gathers some of the most sparkling adventures from the immortal partnership of Bertie and Jeeves: a universe of country houses, impossible engagements, terrifying aunts, and social disasters unfolding with impeccable elegance. Here, good intentions routinely become catastrophes, friendships are tested by alarming schemes, and even an ordinary afternoon may spiral into comic ruin.

Some decisions are made with great seriousness. Others are made, reconsidered, revised, and ultimately regretted—usually by Bertie Wooster. In Bertie Changes His Mind , P. G. Wodehouse explores the delicate art of mental revision under pressure. This time, however, the situation is observed with the calm detachment of Jeeves, who watches his employer's latest conviction shift with alarming speed. Bertie's sudden enthusiasm leads him into a sequence of decisions involving unexpected responsibility and an ill-advised journey to Brighton.

Some men are born to lead. Others are born to follow. Bertie Wooster, however, was born to regard the legal system as something that happens to other people—preferably at a safe distance. In Without the Option , P. G. Wodehouse sends Bertie hurtling from harmless celebration into the dignified horror of British justice, where a misplaced moment of enthusiasm for a policeman's helmet has entirely proper consequences.

In this new collection, recorded live, on-location from Massachusetts to California, David Sedaris reflects on what it means to be a foreigner, a brother, a lifelong friend, in essays that are “among the best of his career" (Publishers Weekly, starred review). “A welcome return to form for...

Some men dream of changing society. Others simply hope to survive luncheon without disgrace. In Comrade Bingo , P. G. Wodehouse unleashes another round of romantic confusion, social acrobatics, and impeccably polished nonsense. Bertie Wooster finds himself observing a world in which revolutionary ideals, aristocratic habits, and spectacularly poor decisions coexist far too comfortably. At the center of it all is Bingo Little — enthusiastic, impressionable, and once again dangerously in love.

Lion-izing (A Tale): I am — that is to say, I was, a great man. But I am neither the author of Junius, nor the man in the mask — for my name is Thomas Smith, and I was born somewhere in the city of Fum-Fudge. The first action of my life was the taking hold of my nose with both hands. My mother saw this and called me a genius. My father wept for joy, and bought me a treatise on Nosology.

Let me introduce you to Signora Psyche Zenobia. An adopted name of course, but for someone so flamboyant, appropriate. The good signora has aspirations. She would like to be a writer. At present she is the corresponding secretary to an interesting group of notables in Philadelphia which goes by a lengthy name with the initials of P.R.E.T.T.Y. B.L.U.E. B.A.T.C.H.! But how to get published? She travels to Edinburgh to meet with the esteemed proprietor and editor of 'Blackwood Magazine.' A real publication of the 1830s.

"The Man That Was Used Up", sometimes subtitled "A Tale of the Late Bugaboo and Kickapoo Campaign", is a short story and satire by Edgar Allan Poe. It was first published in August 1839 in Burton's Gentleman's Magazine. The story follows an unnamed narrator who seeks out the famous war hero John A. B. C. Smith. He becomes suspicious that Smith has some deep secret when others refuse to describe him, instead remarking only on the latest advancements in technology. When he finally meets Smith, the man must first be assembled piece by piece.

Eleven sparkling stories from comic master P.G. Wodehouse, of hapless young clubman Bertie Wooster and his unflappable manservant Jeeves, who is always urbanely ready to rescue the young master and his friends from the soup.

There are times when life requires initiative, decisiveness, and a certain strength of character. Fortunately for Bertie Wooster, he has Jeeves. Between the delicate politics of high society and the quiet catastrophes of everyday existence, authority proves to be a surprisingly fluid arrangement — one that Jeeves manages with unruffled calm, alarming precision, and impeccable timing. With P. G. Wodehouse, no predicament is ever quite as serious as it seems, and no social disaster beyond elegant correction — provided the right gentleman is in attendance. When in doubt… leave it to Jeeves.

Tommy Fugue never cared for the family business. But when his father—aka Big Al, aka King of the Denver Streets—assigns him the “summer job” of laundering money online, Tommy figures he can list some fake projects on FunFunder, pledge them with zombie accounts, and clean a dirty $20,000 in time for college in the fall. Unfortunately for Tommy, he’s more creative than he thought. Just as he’s about to give his father’s capos a progress report, he sees that a roleplaying game he mocked up using his mom’s old artwork has been funded to the tune of $650,000… and counting.

An unsuspecting couple is treated to a luxury vacation by their deceased neighbor. After begrudgingly agreeing to volunteer at a nursing home, a middle school girl gambles over games of bridge with elderly residents. A single mother struggles to understand the unique bond between her autistic son and his dying grandmother. Four friends experience decades of highs and lows as pawns in The Game of Life. A professional gynecology patient runs into a high school flame while at work, undressed, on the job.

When Lizzie Stevens was eighteen, life took a wrong turn. While her best friends Harriet and Anna went interrailing across Europe, Lizzie stayed behind—shunted into a dusty bank job and a sensible life that never quite got back on track. Now sixty-four, freshly divorced from terminally dull Freddie and wondering how she ended up here, Lizzie is unexpectedly reunited with the friends who left her behind. This time, she's not missing the train. Their plan? A gloriously reckless rail adventure across Europe.

"There are moments when a man feels he has the upper hand… and then there are the moments immediately after." In Scoring off Jeeves , Bertie Wooster is quietly confident that, just this once, he has managed to get the better of his otherwise infallible valet. A small victory, perhaps—but in a life so frequently guided, corrected, and discreetly improved, it feels like a triumph of historic proportions. Naturally, this cannot possibly last.
