Mrs queen takes the train - william kuhn

An absolute delight of a debut novel by William Kuhn--author of Reading Jackie: Her Autobiography in Books -- Mrs Queen Takes the Train wittily imagines the kerfuffle that transpires when a bored Queen Elizabeth strolls out of the palace in search of a little fun, leaving behind a desperate team of courtiers who must find the missing Windsor before a national scandal erupts.

Reminiscent of Alan Bennetts The Uncommon Reader , this lively, wonderfully inventive romp takes readers into the mind of the grand matriarch of Britains Royal Family, bringing us an endearing runaway Queen Elizabeth on the town--and leading us behind the Buckingham Palace walls and into the upstairs/downstairs spaces of Englands monarchy.
