The delightful Lady Georgina, 34th in line to the throne, is back and freezing in the cold London mansion. Her family has not given her an allowance nor are they willing to pay to maintain the London house. Hungry and cold, they show up in their hapless and judgemental way, try to bully her to make a good match in order to secure a financially secure future.

Desperate, she accepts an expenses paid trip to Transylvannia to represent the King and Queen at a wedding. As is her habit, mishaps, misteps, and murder are also attending the wedding in an old, isolated castle.

Another great historical mystery. This one introduces a funny character in the form of Queenie, her speedily hired (and cheap) ladies maid. It all ends as these things should, and it is well worth the ride. Wryly funny with quirky characters.
