Colonel Sandhurst to the Rescue

The Poor Relation, Book 5

De: M. C. Beaton

Narrado por: Davina Porter

Owing to an unfortunate wager made by Sir Philip, the poor relations are once again scrounging around for a plan for solvency. This time it is Colonel Sandhurst to the rescue. After happening on Sir Randolph’s lovely daughter Frederica, who is running away to escape an awful marriage to Lord Bewley, the Colonel devises a plan to force Sir Randolph to settle his bill for six month’s stay and to save Frederica from her fate. The clever plan is thwarted when Lord Bewley shows up at the drop point instead of Sir Randolph. The poor relations must make a deal with Lord Bewley in order to get their money and stay out of jail, an arrangement that turns cases of mistaken identity into cases of romance.

The loveable characters from the Poor Relation Hotel return in this sparkling and adventurous Regency from Marion Chesney.

never a dull moment

the characters in the Poor Relation series are delightful. I've listened to the series more than once and I'll listen to it again.

Entertaining as always!

These books have continued to be interesting and enjoyable! They are a great lighthearted listen!

Wonderful!

The continuing saga is so fun! The main characters are so real and we, as readers, have become so caught up in their lives, that we want HEA’s even for the foul, but highly amusing, sir Philip!

I loved how (spoiler alert) even the servants got their HEA!

Marvelous reader!!

*poor, ** ok, *** good, ****very good, *****something special

Love it!

The fun continues and I love it. Ms. Tonks gave Sir Phillip is comeuppance as the laughs continue.

Davina Porter's narration is excellent!

Enjoyed the story, the basis for Beaton ' s later characters are being molded here, the roots of Agatha Raisin lie in Sir Phillip Somerville.
