The old adage says that money changes everything, and according to the woebegone wealthy featured in the stories in Stanley J. Weyman's collection Laid Up in Lavender, that doesn't always mean change for the better. Romantic entanglements, legal woes, business failure, financial strife, and family drama are all exacerbated by fortune in these stories. It's a satisfying read packed with schadenfreude for the less well-heeled.
