Summary
It's social season in London, and amid the swirl of coming-out balls the aristocratic Broadbents are intent on giving their American-educated 17-year-old daughter Jane the right entry into society and a proper upper-class beau. One complication: flighty Mabel Claremont is eager to match that same beau with her daughter. And another: Jane, of course, has her own ideas about these matters, and an eye for a guy who's a drummer in the dance band
