The novel follows Bertie Wooster as he navigates a complex web of relationships and misadventures at Totleigh Towers, the country house of Sir Watkyn Bassett.
Bertie is tasked by his Aunt Dahlia to steal a silver cow-shaped creamer, while also helping his friend Gussie Fink-Nottle with his engagement to Madeline Bassett.
The story is filled with Wodehouse's signature humor, including slapstick comedy, verbal dexterity, and escalating confusion.
The novel also introduces Roderick Spode, a parody of the British fascist politician Sir Oswald Mosley, adding a layer of political satire to the narrative.
