Book #1, 2009
Read by Simon Brett.
Ex-Princess Etheline, daughter of the exiled king of Mitteleuropia, has been
kidnapped during a visit to Tawcester Towers, ancestral seat of the Dukes of
Tawcester, and ducal family honour demands that she should be rescued.
The Dowager Duchess entrusts the task to her son, the Right Hon. Devereux
Lyminster, known universally as 'Blotto'. He is, of course, terribly handsome,
honourable and brave, but as sadly deficient in the brains department as his
sister 'Twinks' is gifted. So Blotto sets off, accompanied by trusty former
batman and chauffeur, Corky Froggett. They drive across many countries
to Mitteleuropia, a realm now ruled by a usurper, the ex-king's brother, where
they suspect the princess has been taken. Can brave Blotto and loyal Corky
rescue Ethelinda, or will they meet their end in the evil clutches of
King Vlatislav?
