By Invitation
Bingham, Charlotte
The beautiful Lady Georgiana Longborough and her friend Jennifer Parker-Jones, 7th Marchioness of Pemberton, are finding life a little too dull in deepest Wilt-shire. Jennifer's answer to all her problems it seems is to give a Summer Ball. But the social life of the County Set is rarely if ever that straightforward, for while shopping for her ball gown Georgiana re-meets her first lover, Kaminski, the great and famous film director, while at the same time her aunt, the Countess - who is helping Jennifer arrange her ball - finds out that in fact Jennifer is bent on double crossing her. The Countess in turn plots to teach the young Marchioness a lesson - but will she be able to manage her revenge? Will Jennifer discover the true father of her buxom neighbour's children? Will Fulton - the gay husband of Lady Tizzy the buxom neighbour - ever manage to make Lady Tizzy stop straying? And will Bloss, Lord Pemberton's wily butler, manage to get his get his new car? Will life in Wiltshire ever be the same? Not as long as Charlotte Bingham's famously wonderful characters inhabit this neck of the rural woods.....
