About this audiobook
A charismatic drifter agrees to deliver a manuscript, unknowingly walking into a sprawling English estate rife with political intrigue and stolen diamonds. When a foreign prince is assassinated within the mansion's walls, the glamorous guests become trapped in a tense murder investigation. Secret passages, disguised royals, and master thieves create an atmosphere where no one is exactly who they claim to be. This lighthearted yet dangerous romp requires untangling a web of international blackmail to find a cunning murderer.
