The year is 1932, and Georgie lives in a drafty Scottish castle with her brother's family. As soon as she turns twenty-one, she is cut off from her allowance and forced to marry a ghastly prince that she does not like. To support herself and living a freedom-filled life, she flees her ancestral home to London and takes up nontraditional jobs. The queen hampers her fresh start, asking Georgie to spy on Prince William and Wallis Simpson. To make matters worse, a dead body appears in Georgie's bathtub. Not just any dead body, but the body of someone who wanted to take her family's estate. Georgie must investigate and find the killer to clear her family's name.

I had a hard time getting through this book. Despite the author's intention to create some background for Georgie, it took over 100 pages to begin the mystery. My perception of Georgie is that she's a Mary Sue. In order not to be recognized by others, Georgie delegated too many investigative tasks to friends and relatives. It is not interesting to hear her friends and family update her on their findings. It was more important to me that Georgie was out there investigating than she was! Currently, she is not an active amateur detective. Despite its mystery, I found it too predictable. The clues felt glaringly obvious, and I guessed the killer right away.

I would recommend skipping this book if you're looking for a mystery.
