I called out. "Would you like to hear a ghost story?"
For a moment Jack didn't move, and I knew he'd recognized my voice. After a moment he said, flatly, "I don't believe in ghosts."
"It's a complicated story," I admitted, and pulled the watch from my pocket by the chain. "And it starts with 'Long ago and far away.'"

Amazingly similar to Wodehouse's writing style and plot structure. And Uncle Fred is SO Freddish! *love* And just when you're certain you've stumbled into a missing short story by Plum, the author throws in a lovely backstory that is all hir own. No way to oversell this wonderful fic.
