Ep 20 - Faro‘s Daughter

The Georgette Heyer Podcast

Spoilers ahead.

Poor Lady Bellingham! Running a profitable yet respectable gaming house is harder than it appears. Especially since her niece refuses to form a connection for such a base purpose as financial security. And then there's the cost of green peas to consider.

If only there was a handsome green pea farmer for Deb to marry, but sadly it's down to Max Ravenscar's deep pockets to save the day. Can this pair get past Max's blistering tongue and Deb's determination to win their battle at any cost?

Join us in this episode as we scrabble to uncover Max's finer points, discuss well-turned ankles, and whether the secondary characters in this book cut the mustard.

(Also if you'd like more Heyer podcasts in your life, give Heyer Today a listen: https://fablegazers.wordpress.com/binge-our-podcasts-now/ you will learn sooo much.)

"I will say this for you, Deb: you may lock people up in the cellar, and fling thousands of pounds in their faces as though it was mud, but you don't cry!"
