About book Your Royal Hostage (1988)

" 'We don't want to hurt her. We must remember that. All of us. She is after all innocent ... Well, isn't she?'"With these words the leader of the secret group tries to establish the ground rules of its conspiracy concerning the bride, HRH Princess Amy of Cumberland, a 22-year-old British Princess about to marry the somewhat older and slightly dissipated European Prince Ferdinand. But there is more than one kind of innocence, and as preparations for the Royal Wedding advance, the group evidently has in mind some gesture which will call attention to the rights and wrongs of those who have no voice of their own."Jemima Shore, newly sacked from Megalith Television, is covering the Royal Wedding for an American television company. As the terrible events unfold, she must grapple with the drama in her own way, via a memorable scene at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, up to the book's thrilling climax."~~back coverI enjoyed this book so much more than the ordinary Jemima Shore mysteries! What a wonderful spoof of royalty, Americans (especially tv reporters), and the frenzy and hoopla surrounding anything that movie stars or royalty do.Cleverly written, the plot and the plotters seem innocuous until the final curtain, and even that fiasco opens new vistas and revelations for both the plotters and the plotted against.
