Dahlia invites her niece to her country estate, located in Brinkley Court. Meanwhile, Jeeves, too, is about to embark on his journey for a few days. He has been planning a vacation for a long time and recently received a well-deserved vacation. The man plans to visit the Herne Bay area. The man’s trip will take at least a few days. And Bertie need not worry about finding extra people, as Dalia’s husband Tom is scheduled to travel to Harrogate for a business meeting with American Homer Krim.
The deal is an important one for Thomas, so he is forced to travel to another city. Homer arrives in Great Britain with his wife Adela and son Wilbert. And while the head of the family conducts important negotiations, Adela and her child head to Brinkley Court. Roberta Wickham and Aubrey Upjohn are staying in the same region. Both individuals had previously worked together with Bertie and his old friend Reginald Herring, with whom Bertie had gone to the same school.
