Anglican Seinfeld.  Wodehouse with more sex, Waugh with more heart.  Who's for a bit of what we're having, a perfect fizzer of a Brit-American cocktail, with a happy ending for all time?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach Book of Chesterfield is a novella-length story with its own lunatic plot-line.  Together the three Books form a unified novel.  \"Sparkling... Literate, funny, and romantic... \"  Kirkus Reviews (starred review)*\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBook Three:  THE END OF THE BEGINNING -- Sexy Deborah has Chesterfield's besotted father Captain Jack on a string, and the Ffoulkes Fortune almost in her grasp -- if it even exists at all.  Chesterfield himself doesn't care if it exists, and he's glad to accept Deborah's belated offer to divorce, so that he may enter a happy if impoverished new life with Carrie.  A trip to Carrie's family estate in the Finger Lakes reveals that while our heroine may be poor, her elegant parents, Shemp and Barbara, are not.  But would Chesterfield's code ever allow him to be a kept man?  Back in the city, \"tech-lad\" Larry traces a sinister ring of identity hackers, and steroid black-marketeers, to the gym owned by Chesterfield's old nemesis Benedict Hoepplewhite.  This final call to battle with a 'roided-up Hoepplewhite, the duty to be his own and Carrie's provider, and the bizarre, explosive reading of Daphne Ffoulkes Chesterfield's will -- with her vividly in attendance! -- create a climax not to be believed, but forever to be savored.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*www.kirkusreviews.com","brand":"Gwyn Parry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47080770044144,"sku":"2940015492194","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015492194_p0.jpg?v=1763620895","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015492194","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
