I loved the first book in this series The Windsor Knot, so was delighted to see this second release! As with some sequels, for me, this was missing some of the sparkle of the first.

I adore Rozie and the way the Queen is written is humorous and intelligent and you really always feel you are getting a deep insight into the way people work, think and feel in the palaces.

The writing here is great. I'm reading another book simultaneously and this far outstrips the other author in terms of writing style. One thing that concerns me: it's convoluted. There are so many plots here: poison pen letters, missing art, a murder. Missing art and a murder would have been sufficient, or the poison pen and a murder ... but the three things? Well, that was my Three Plot Problem.

All in all, a quick and well-written read. I'll give the next book a go with fingers crossed that we see even more of Rozie.
