Months later, Dominey returns to London and resumes his glittering social life. But is it really Dominey who has come back – or a German secret agent seeking to infiltrate English high society? As international tension mounts and Europe moves closer to war, Dominey finds himself entangled in a story of suspicion and intrigue. He must try to evade his insane and murderous wife as well as escape the attentions of the passionate Princess Eiderstrom – and will eventually uncover the secret of the ghost that haunts his ancestral home.
