Publisher Comments:

Another hilarious mystery featuring penniless aristocrat Lady Georgie, aa feisty new heroine to delight a legion of Anglophile readersa (Jacqueline Winspear).

The Queen of England has concocted a plan in which Georgie is to entertain a Bavarian princessa and conveniently place her in the playboy Princeas path, in the hopes that he might finally marry.

But queens never take money into account. Georgie has very little, which is why she moonlights as a maid-in-disguise. She must draw up plans: clean house to make it look like a palace; have Granddad and her neighbor pretend to be the domestic staff; un-teach Princess Hanni the English sheas culled from American gangster movies; cure said Princess of her embarrassing shoplifting habit; and keep an eye on her at parties. Then thereas the worrying matter of the body in the bookshop and Hannias unwitting involvement with the Communist Party. Itas enough to drive a girl crazy...
