Description
It's 1961 and the Queen is planning her state visit to Italy aboard Britannia. But before she goes, an unreliable witness claims to have seen a brutal murder from the royal train. Did it really happen, and could the victim be a missing friend of Princess Margaret's new husband, Tony Armstrong Jones?

The Queen is back, but it's fairly early in her reign and she's on the royal train to Scotland when something unexpected is spotted from the window.
It's a great mystery, following the clever spin of the series where the main investigator must never be revealed and must work through intermediates.
Like a classic spy novel, we get to visit exotic locations, and discover plots within plots. There's some classic jokes as well.
A really lovely series that I'm really enjoying collecting.
