Well, I'm reading another book in this series. I'd forgotten that I wasn't sure whether or not I liked it or not. It's a waste of time for me. India and her friend, French, are off to Scotland with the queen hoping to prevent an assassination attempt. After one hundred pages all that occurred was a trip to Scotland. As usual, India was racing around trying to be an investigator. Fortunately, French comes to her rescue as she bumbles about. In the castle with the queen they try to discover who might be planning to assassinate the queen. They pinpoint several suspects but find no firm evidence about any. The real investigator is the marchioness whose wit and intelligence really saves this novel. Even I figured out who the Marischal was early in the novel. I know others like the series but I'm not sure I'll pick up the next one. For me this was so so read. I'd rate it two stars at best.
