All Gerald wants is to be left alone to live the quiet life in the 1930s English Countryside. He may be too poor to pay his staff and fix his crumbling mansion but he's happy with his lot until a telegram from his Great Aunt Agatha arrives, calling him across the Atlantic to the swinging New York of the Jazz age. Guided by his estranged, party animal brother, Clarence, Gerald is thrown headlong into a dangerous and mysterious adventure involving gangsters, dancers and a myriad of other colourful characters!
