Royal flush : a royal spyness mystery

Bowen, Rhys. (Author).

Summary: Lady Georgiana is a penniless heiress, thirty-fourth in line to the throne, living in 1930s London. When her fledgling housecleaning business fizzles, her friend Belinda suggests Georgianna hire herself out as a dinner-and-theatre companion. But on her first and only assignment, the not-so-gentle-man seems to have quite the wrong idea. Only the intervention of her on-and-off again beau, Darcy, saves her. To avoid further scandal, she's sent to Castle Rannoch, where she is charged by Her Majesty with keeping the divorced, American, and entirely unsuitable Mrs. Simpson from seducing the Prince of Wales. She's also coerced into helping Scotland Yard with a top secret mission--preventing the Prince's assassination.
