Mission for a Queen

Mission for a Queen (2016) Tracy Grant

Set in London and Europe in the summer of 1818

Malcolm and Susanne/Melanie have fled London, along with their children, Raoul, and Laura, while the friends back on London try to piece together what happened, and keep their disappearance as quiet and boring as possible.

David and Simon are still trying to work out their problems–after all it was Carfax telling Malcolm that Susanne had been a spy that caused them to leave.

In theory, the mystery is what happened to Hortense Bonaparte’s bracelet, but the story is more an intermediary of everyone settling into the changes.

It’s perfectly fine, but not one of the stronger stories.
Rating: 6.5/10
