Product Description
The Honorable Peregrine Vaughan-Uppington is a troubled enigma, despite a wealthy aristocratic background, Eton, Cambridge and the Royal Engineers.
Decorated but denied military promotion, and thoughtlessly passed over for appointment as Estate Manager by his noble family, his imperative has been to gouge a fiscal future for himself at the expense of almost everyone else.
His solution? The creation of an unusual surveying practice in Oxford, notorious as a ferocious adversary.
'The Surveyors' chronicles the activities of Lord Peregrine and those around him through seven fast-paced days. Its whimsical humour, beguiling technical solutions and audacious money-making yield a heady and entertaining brew.
