Sometimes, being a country gentleman isn't all it's cracked up to be. There are smugglers in the basement, the butler is a bomb-throwing anarchist, and a college rival has come to visit without so much as a how-do-you-do -- to say nothing of amorous neighbors, itinerant con artists, and the matter of the curious Moroccan idol.The Worldly Affairs of Lord Gosham is a tale of high-society hijinks in a farcical world of secret societies, wild-eyed poets, and dastardly bassoonists (perhaps the most detestable of all musicians). Follow Lord Henrius Gosham, clueless Edwardian aristocrat and master of Mossthorpe Hall, as he struggles to navigate the ever-treacherous waters of upper-crust society and restore some semblance of respectability to his family's increasingly decrepit estate.
