Now he's a pretty famous suspense writer, but with his latest book, Going Home in the Dark, it's actually a comedy. He's told me that in the past when he's tried something like this, the publisher's would push back. They just didn't get it – that it was supposed to be funny. But Dean heard my audition and thought I'd get where he was going. He thinks I've done a "bang-up job" with it.  He describes me as someone "who knows funny – and how not to oversell it".   So, to honor this good news, we have a P.G. Wodehouse story from the short story collection The Man with Two Left Feet.   And now, The Romance of an Ugly Policeman, by P.G.
