Young George Ferrier's frivolous jaunt in London ends with an unexpected encounter with the wealthy Mr. Green, an old friend of his father, who spontaneously drafts George into being a trustee for his daughter Elma.
George accepts (primarily due to the payment involved) and puts it out of his mind, returning home to his high-spirited Irish mother, distracted astronomer father, and friends Peter Seeley and his sister Cathy.
But Mr. Green's sudden death - and the discovery that his fellow trustees are distinctly on the shady side - launches George into a series of rollicking adventures as he attempts to secure the overly-sheltered Elma's wealth, protect her from fortune-hunters, and shield her from her own naïve instincts.
First published in 1939 and out of print for many years, Green Money is a delightful tale of fortune and fraud, innocence and experience - and of course romance.
