This book featured Charlotte as much as Thomas as the action alternated between them both, Thomas in France, and Charlotte in Ireland, both try to discover evil against the British government. Subversives have contrived to mislead Thomas into a chase to France, and to have his boss at Special Branch, Narraway, removed from his position for theft and fraud. Charlotte, acting as Narraway's sister goes to Ireland to track down the missing money as old enmities are rekindled. Thomas is barely one step ahead of assassins who would complete the job of removing both him and his boss from Special Branch. This book promoted Charlotte's grace and intelligence and clever wit in detective mode, as well as Thomas' efforts to prevent subversion and to help clearn his boss' name. A darned good read.
