Henry and Cato Iris Murdoch

As the curtain rises on this witty and ironic novel, Cato is furtively dropping a revolver into the night-enshrouded Thames. Henry, high above the Atlantic, is returning to England to claim an unexpected inheritance. His mother, Gerda, is waiting at Laxlinden Hall in fear of what Henry may do with the huge old estate. And Beautiful Joe, a vicious delinquent who is Cato's protege, is about to hatch plans of his own for Henry's money... With all her customary suavity and skill, Iris Murdoch guides these and several other characters to their just deserts - however surprising those deserts may prove to be.
