Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
The course of true love never does run smooth - especially when it involves a high-born young lady, a humble farmhand and extra-terrestrial chameleons on the lookout for breeding stock.
Will Lady Anne Warminster marry the man of her dreams? Will the amorphous Glossophants secure their chosen spawn bride? Will Jenny ever finish reading a novel by Anthony Trollope?
In the heart of the English countryside, the Gang tackle an assignment involving romance, skulduggery and horse manure.
