Robert Manners

Robert Manners is an alumnus of San Francisco State University and lives in Oakland, CA with a lot of books, hundreds of elephant figurines, and far too many sweaters.

A little bit Wimsey, a little bit Wooster, young gay aristocrat Viscount Foxbridge (Foxy to his friends) moves to London in June 1927 and begins poking his nose into other people's business; but life in a big city is quite different from Oxford or Eton, and Foxy's habitual nosy-parkering turns up a surprising number of corpses, landing him in mortal danger more than once. With his excellent valet Pond in tow, Foxy solves a few mysteries, falls in love with a cop, befriends a dominatrix, becomes engaged to a cross-dressing debutante, hobnobs with royalty, and finds adventure around every corner.
