The Lightning Conductor

Set against a backdrop of early 20th-century travel, the narrative unfolds as a charming romance reminiscent of Pride and Prejudice, featuring a young heroine, Molly, and her old-maid aunt on a road trip from London to Italy in an automobile. The story embraces elements of farce, with characters humorously unaware of each other's true identities, akin to Gilbert & Sullivan's works. Notably, the book is crafted entirely in an epistolary format, with letters exchanged between the protagonists and their trusted confidantes, enhancing its unique storytelling.
