Victoria's Jubilee is fast approaching, and London has to be prepared and secure for the celebration. However, some in Germany think that it is time to end Britannia's rule of the world must end. Secret societies exist to that end.
When a body without its head and hands is discovered in the Thames, Lord Powerscourt is called upon to help the police investigate. When it is discovered that the body is that of an influential banker, Powerscourt's investigation moves on to that family. Soon after, the family home goes up in flames and another body is found in the wreckage.
Compounding the investigation is the fear that some Irish radical might attempt to assassinate Victoria. Could the murders, the secret societies, the planned assassination attempt and the family all be tied together? What role does the family bank have to do in the whole scheme of things?
Kidnappings and gun running play an integral role in the story as villains attempt to bring down the most powerful nation on earth just before the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
Author David Dickenson has written a very good sequel to "Goodnight Sweet Prince".
