Bertie’s back! And this time his talent for trouble trails him to the Big Apple. When childhood chum Binkey Binkersteth knocks, one knacky notion leads to masterful mayhem and soon the notorious Knuckles McCann is fitting Bertie for a Chicago overcoat. Fortunately, the unflappable Jeeves is close at hand with a stiff cuppa joe and a penchant for putting things right!

Immerse yourself in the 1930s Prohibition era of Jeeves Takes a Bow with a gin tasting event presented in partnership with Seattle-based Big Gin and Brad Holden, author of Seattle Prohibition: Bootleggers, Rumrunners and Craft in the Queen City.
