Why read it?

2 authors picked All the Queen's Men as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The whole idea of Queen Elizabeth solving mysteries is fun to start with. Then throw in royal family oddities, an art theft, a murder, and a rather surprise ending and you've got a perfect mystery. Pure enjoyment. (And getting a peak behind the royal curtains was fun, too)

I love this book because it takes you behind the scenes of the Palace and what goes on there.

Located in the very heart of London, I could not get around the city without going by the Palace. This book connects you to what is happening unseen and brings that intrigue home. It really completes the London experience for me.
