Publisher's Summary

International bestseller Jeffrey Archer returns

A THRILLER FROM THE MASTER STORYTELLER

London, 1988. Royal fever sweeps the nation as Britain falls in love with the ‘people’s princess’.

Which means for Scotland Yard, the focus is on the elite Royalty Protection Command, and its commanding officer. Entrusted with protecting the most famous family on earth, they quite simply have to be the best. A weak link could spell disaster.

Detective Chief Inspector William Warwick and his Scotland Yard squad are sent in to investigate the team. Maverick ex-undercover operative Ross Hogan is charged with a very sensitive – and unique – responsibility. But it soon becomes clear the problems in Royalty Protection are just the beginning. A renegade organization has the security of the country – and the Crown – in its sights. The only question is which target is next in line…

George Blagden does the best narration for this series of books. The same little themes and humor carry through the memorable characters set up in this story. Another great story by Jeffrey Archer.

another good yarn

once again a thoroughly entertaining adventure in William Warwick's world. Looking forward to the next instalment. The audio editing was, occasionally, a bit jumpy but didnt take away from the story.
