AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Lady Adelaide closes in on the German spymaster called the Doctor…

'Lady Adelaide Azalea Margaret de Morville, Mrs. Hugh Becket, leads an operation to recruit a potential double agent with a connection to the Doctor, with Torin Slane, the Irish professor and Fenian, and Daniel Bannister, Baron Leighton, to assist her. All three work under the cover of the traditional Salinghall Christmas Eve Ball, which Adele’s family has attended every year for decades.

'But returning home for Christmas, after eloping with a commoner many years ago, comes with complications, including her judgemental and difficult father and her trouble-prone sisters.

'Only, the real trouble comes from a completely unexpected direction, putting Adele on a collision course with the Doctor himself…'
