Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"The Girl on the Boat" by P. G. Wodehouse is a novel published in 1922. Red-haired Billie Bennett finds herself aboard an ocean liner bound for England, accompanied by three men vying for her attention: her long-suffering suitor Bream Mortimer, shy poet Eustace Hignett who is secretly engaged to her, and Eustace's dashing cousin Sam Marlowe who falls for Billie at first sight. Comic complications ensue when another capable young woman enters the picture with her own romantic designs.
