Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Red Ryvington, Vol. 3 of 3
Then I don't believe she was a real princess, Dora. Women who smoke cigars in public are no better than they should be, you may be sure of that. But I must go and see after the dinner. If cook does not keep her fire clear that turkey will be underdone, and it would be such a pity, for I never saw a finer. You know who is coming of course '3' Yes: Ran told me before he went down to the counting-house. Mr. Twister and Mr. Striver and Bentley. It will be a strangely assorted party, I must say. A peer of the realm, a member of the House of Commons, a Russian physician, two manufacturers of humble origin and indifferent education, a weaver of genius, and you and me, aunt. A meeting of extremes, I should call it.'
