Something Like That

The owner of the castle, the cheerful Lord Emsworth, accidentally took a scarab, a priceless item from the collection of J. Preston Peters — an American millionaire living nearby, and also the father of the bride of Emsworth's younger son, Frederick Tripwood, an absolute slacker and spendthrift. Lord Emsworth had no idea what a complicated story he and everyone around him would get into. But the strong walls of the Emsworth family nest can withstand a lot: the quirks of the elderly head of the clan, the antics of the younger generation, and the madcap antics of the guests. Something Like That is the first novel in the Blandings Castle series.
