ReviewsPraise for the Royal Spyness Mysteries "Wonderful characters…A delight."-Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels and Midnight Crossing "Georgie's high spirits and the author's frothy prose are utterly captivating."- The Denver Post "The perfect fix between seasons for Downton Abbey addicts."-Deborah Crombie, New York Times bestselling author of The Sound of Broken Glass "A smashing romp."- Booklist (starred review) "Delightfully naïve, charming and quite smart, Georgie is a breath of fresh air."- Library Journal "Brilliant…So much more than a murder mystery. It's part love story, part social commentary, part fun and part downright terrifying. And completely riveting. I adore this book." -Louise Penny, author of How the Light Gets In "With a witty and clever plot, it's clear that Agatha Christie is alive and kicking, and what's more, she's funny!"-Hannah Dennison, author of Thieves! a Vicky Hill Exclusive!

SynopsisThirty-fifth in line for the British throne, Lady Georgiana Rannoch becomes embroiled in royal wrongdoing in the ninth mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of Crowned and Dangerous . Caught between her high birth and empty purse, Georgie is relieved to receive a new assignment from the Queen. The King's youngest son, George, is to wed Princess Marina of Greece, and the Queen wants Georgie to be her companion: showing her the best of London--and dispelling any rumors about George's libertine history. The prince is known for his many affairs with women as well as men--including the great songwriter Noel Coward. But things truly get complicated when one of his supposed mistresses is murdered. The Queen wants the whole matter hushed. But as the case unfolds--and Georgie's beau Darcy, as always, turns up in the most unlikely of places--their investigation brings them precariously close to the prince himself., Thirty-fifth in line for the British throne, Lady Georgiana Rannoch becomes embroiled in royal wrongdoing in the ninth mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of Crowned and Dangerous .
