Series: Maggie Hope

Susan Elia MacNeal introduced the remarkable Maggie Hope in her acclaimed debut, Mr. Churchill s Secretary. Now, as World War II sweeps the continent and England steels itself against

German attack, Maggie Hope, former secretary to Prime Minister Winston

Churchill, completes her training to become a spy for MI-5. Spirited,

strong-willed, and possessing one of the sharpest minds in government

for mathematics and code-breaking, she fully expects to be sent abroad

to gather intelligence for the British front. Instead, to her great

disappointment, she is dispatched to go undercover at Windsor Castle,

where she will tutor the young Princess Elizabeth in math. Yet castle

life quickly proves more dangerous and deadly than Maggie ever expected.

The upstairs-downstairs world at Windsor is thrown into disarray by a

shocking murder, which draws Maggie into a vast conspiracy that places

the entire royal family in peril. And as she races to save England from a

most disturbing fate, Maggie realizes that a quick wit is her best

defense, and that the smallest clues can unravel the biggest secrets,

even within her own family.

As sweet as it is intriguing. USA Today A captivating, post-feminist picture of England during its finest hour. The Denver Post Daring ... Blends meticulous research on the era, psychological insight into Winston Churchill, and the creation of a riveting main character, Maggie Hope, into a spectacularly crafted novel. Bookreporter
