This is 4th in the series. It's about "Robert Amiss, a young Englishman prone to mishaps as he explores different jobs in contemporary London, England."

I'm not sure if I need a Real English Dictionary, or an English slang Dictionary. Hard to understand till I read the whole sentence, paragraph, etc., to know what the author means by some of the words used that are totally new to me in spite of having read many English novels...
