About the book
"The Intrusion of Jimmy" by P. G. Wodehouse is a novel published in 1910. Wealthy bachelor Jimmy Pitt falls in love aboard a transatlantic liner, then breaks into a New York police captain's house on a bet, aided by a small-time burglar. When the action shifts to England's stately Dreever Castle, Jimmy reunites with the girl he loves—but her suspicious father stands in the way. Amid imposters, detectives, and scheming relatives, romantic complications and a valuable necklace create the perfect recipe for comedic chaos.
