But when his niece, Madame Papofsky, descends on the house with her eight unruly children, will the General, with the help of his friends, be able to escape her greedy clutches? The sequel to A Room at Guardian Angel Inn is as fun and carefree as the first!Another of the famed Comtesse de Segur's novels, General Dourakine has been carefully and delightfully translated into English.
