      Vernon Alverstoke sees no reason to put himself out for anyone.


      But when a distant connection asks for help, he is quickly plunged into one drama after another by the disorderly Merriville family.

      Surprisingly, he finds himself far from bored - especially when he encounters their strong-minded daughter, Frederica.

      However, she seems far more concerned with her family''s welfare than his romantic advances...
