This story was a small addition of a little over 100 pages in the back of the first book of the series - Off to the Races. As such, I would definitely call it a short story. 

In my opinion, it was okay but not on the level of her other works.  And as usual, Dermot was a fool and Ada had stars in her eyes. 

It’s interesting to see the start of the  family businesses and yet somehow I was left with a feeling that I really would not have missed out on much if I had just skipped over this part.
