The moon moved on, and it was as hot as it had been before, but no one bitched about the weather anymore. When Niema sees Tucker for the first time in 5 years, Tucker introduces himself with his 'real' name, his identity that only a select few have knowledge of which now includes her.

I was taken with The Windsor Knot earlier this year and put a hold on this second book quite soon after finishing it. As she reminds herself, when the enquiries she has set in train take an unexpectedly risky turn, ‘her regimental specialism had been “find, strike, destroy, suppress”‘.

The ending was also nice, although I would have liked a bit more because I wanted to know what exactly happened with the main characters and everyone else. And yet, all of these things prove to be the least of her worries when, a staff member is found dead beside the palace swimming pool. The last thing the Queen needs is any more problems to worry about, but when an oil painting gifted by an Aussie artist of the Royal Yacht Britannia, given to the Queen in the 1960s and hung outside her bedroom, shows up unexpectedly in a Royal Navy exhibition in Portsmouth, she tasks her able and discreet assistant private secretary, Rozie Oshodi, to investigate. Even more now that I own two different audio versions, a Kindle file, and several paperbacks (just in case). I also enjoyed the ‘behind the scenes’ look at life in a royal palace, an increasingly dilapidated one as it turns out in the case of Buckingham Palace.

John Medina, the CIA's Black Ops specialist, works in the shadows of the government's deadliest missions.Artemisia Geniteschi is the 17th century artist whose paintings are featured in one of the mysteries of A Three Dog Problem. After a short while being safe, they decided to treat themselves to a tourist-style walk in a nearby town. The Queen wants her painting back, and she asks her Assistant Private Secretary Rozie Oshodi - an attractive, ex-army, Anglo-Nigerian woman who's clever and discreet - to find out how the artwork came to be in the hands of the Royal Navy.

I listened to the audiobook narrated, once again, by Jane Copland and her familiar British accent added to my listening experience. Other women have also received vicious missives, including a royal housekeeper named Cynthia Harris and Rozie herself.Whilst the death is deemed to be an unfortunate accident, the Queen is not so convinced as she finds herself once again in the middle of an investigation which has more twists and turns than she could ever have possibly imagined. I felt like I was reading the same book with the same characters, only they had different names and the book had a different title. Oh, there’s crime and murder and evil going on, but we know that the Queen, in her calm and methodical manner, will get to the bottom of it with her discreet, capable Assistant Private Secretary Rozie Oshodi. All used books might have various degrees of writing, highliting and wear and tear and possibly be an ex-library with the usual stickers and stamps.
