"When Grizel Craigie, against her better judgement is persuaded by Bunny Colville to ask Eloise, the devastatingly lovely Duchess of Fowey, nominally to spend ten days or so under her roof (though actually she will be spending most of her nights under Bunny's), she lets off a whole hilarious train of gunpowder.  Everything possible goes wrong and the path of true love runs even more bumpily than usual - none of which would have mattered if the island of Samolo hadn't at that moment been in the throes of preparing for a royal visit."
