About This Book
A London correspondent turned heir stays in the capital and becomes entangled when a planned royal match is threatened by the prince's affection for a young woman, provoking intrigue from jealous courtiers. Misunderstandings and a mistaken arrest involve the prince, the woman he loves, and another singer friend, while a money-lender's household and a scheming minister complicate matters. A violent crime and subsequent murder investigation push the narrator into covert collaboration with allies and enemies alike, producing a sequence of imprisonments, narrow escapes, and revelations that expose conspirators and resolve competing claims.
