Hot Water is a novel by P.G. Wodehouse, first published on August 17 1932, in the U.K. by Herbert Jenkins, London, and in the United States by Doubleday Doran, New York.

The story takes place at the Chateau Blissac, Brittany, and recounts the various romantic and criminal goings-on there during a house party, hosted by the Vicomte Blissac. It contains a mixture of romance, intrigue and Wodehouse's brand of humour.
