Excellent book! Only criticism is the narrator sounded rather bored at times. I think he was aiming for the rather sardonic drawl of the aristocracy, but at times it sounded as if he was a bit fed up of the whole story. However, new to Georgette Heyer, or like me enjoying her books again this time on audio, they are good, well-written and often witty 18th century romps
