Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Honorable Percival
The utterly preposterous fact that a Hascombe of Hascombe Hall had been jilted was too amazing a circumstance to be concealed, and the county buzzed with rumors. The Honorable Percival, whose pride had sustained a compound fracture, set sail immediately for America. After a hurried trip across the continent, he was embarking again, this time for hong-kong, where a sympathetic married sister held out embracing arms, and a promise of refuge from wagging tongues.
