Descriere The Unknown Ajax - Georgette Heyer

Lord Darracott rules his barony with a firm hand. But when a tragic accident kills his eldest son, he must summon the next heir apparent--the unknown offspring of the uncle whom the family is never permitted to mention. Reissue. \n \nThe Queen of Regency Romance, bestselling author Georgette Heyer, brings her trademark charm and wit to this pitch-perfect comedic romp.\n \nA past dispute . . .\n \nWhen the irascible Lord Darracott's eldest son dies unexpectedly, the noble family must accept their estranged Yorkshire cousin as heir apparent. They are convinced he will prove to be a sadly vulgar person, but nothing could have prepared the beleaguered family for the arrival of Major Hugo Darracott . . .\n \nA present deception . . .\n \nHis clever and beautiful cousin Anthea is sure there's more to the gentle giant than Hugo's innocent blue eyes and broad Yorkshire brogue would lead one to believe. But even she doesn't guess what he's capable of, until a family crisis arises and only Hugo can preserve the family's honor, leading everybody on a merry chase in the process . . .\n \nPraise for The Unknown Ajax: \n \nWonderful entertainment from first page to last.--Chicago Sunday Tribune\n
