The Girl on the Boat

by P. G. Wodehouse

Meet Sam Marlowe, an amiable, yet somewhat hapless, young man hopelessly smitten with the charming but elusive heiress, Miss Molly McEachern. Determined to win her heart, Sam embarks on a journey to America aboard the R.M.S. Atlantic. Little does he know that fate has other plans in store for him. Unbeknownst to Sam, his eccentric Aunt Adela, a fervent believer in the curative powers of the sea, has stowed away on the same ship. And she's not alone – Aunt Adela has the scheming novelist, Wilfred Webley, in tow, whom she believes is the perfect husband for her niece. As the transatlantic voyage unfolds, misunderstandings multiply at an astonishing rate. When Sam mistakes the wrong girl for Molly, a chain reaction of uproarious events is set into motion. From impersonations and hidden identities to secret romances and meddling relatives, chaos reigns supreme on the high seas. With Wodehouse's trademark wit and sparkling humor, "The Girl on the Boat" is a madcap adventure that explores the lengths people will go to find love, and the delightful chaos that ensues when their plans inevitably go awry. Join Sam Marlowe and a delightful cast of characters on this rollicking voyage where romance, comedy, and mistaken identities collide. Get ready to set sail on a riotous journey that proves, once again, that P. G. Wodehouse is the master of comedic storytelling.
