Geoffry Chadwick Misadventure
|
A Geoffry Chadwick Misadventure, Book 3 – Geoffry Chadwick is back and this time the reluctant hero and social observer is going to a wedding - or maybe not. Geoffry's niece, Jennifer, is about to marry Douglas, son of a prominent – or at the very least notorious – Montreal socialite, Lois Fullerton. Lois is a wealthy widow with an impressive list of discarded lovers and it looks like she's decided Geoffry will be her next conquest. But after meeting Lois on several occasions, Chadwick discovers he is being followed. Soon a nasty knife wound – on the front tire of his car – and a nasty note thicken the plot. Has Lois masterminded a trap? Who is her suspicious, swarthy, and sexy chauffeur? And why is the bridegroom more interested in his future brother-in-law than his future bride? A lively misadventure of manners – bad manners – with just a hint of crime.
First published in 1990, this new edition contains a tribute by Alexander Inglis to Mr Phillips who passed away in May, 2020.
"The real meat and potatoes of the book are dished up in Geoffry's ironical opinions and epigrams. He skewers everything and everyone. Phillips also gives us scenes of rich comedy. Enjoy it for its waspish verbal zingers, its satire of convention and its wry insights." – Montreal Gazette
"Sunday Best is delightful reading on a wintry Sunday afternoon. A highly polished gem on Montreal mores and manners, with a side trip to Toronto." – Ian Mayer, Toronto Star
