Along the way, Herries becomes embroiled in a number of political intrigues and romantic entanglements, including a love affair with the daughter of the European nation's ruler. The novel is a fast-paced adventure story with elements of romance and political drama, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of international diplomacy at the turn of the 20th century.
