  After the death of her beloved mother, the beautiful young Salrina Milborne and her father, Lord Milborne, have found themselves in straitened circumstances.
  	And now that her father has hurt his leg in a riding accident he is unable to complete the training of the horses they depend on for their income. 	Reluctantly Lord Milborne has agreed to sell one of his most precious thoroughbreds and, against his better judgement, he allows Salrina to ride unaccompanied to complete the sale some distance from their Manor House. 
  	When a vicious storm strikes, Salrina takes shelter in the stables of a Posting inn and there she overhears a conversation that will change her life. 
  	An English aristocrat is scheming with a sinister Frenchman to assassinate the Prince Regent at one of his extravagant parties at Carlton House in London!
  	In the middle of the War against Napoleon this would have a devastating effect on British morale and would hand a considerable advantage to the French Emperor.
  	Terrified, Salrina takes the news to the haughtily handsome Alaric, the Earl of Fleetwood, who at first believes that her story is a ploy to gain entry to his exclusive parties. 
  	She dislikes the arrogant Earl intensely, but is impressed by his magnificent houses in London and the country. 
  	But gradually, as she discerns his heroic hidden qualities, her hate turns to an all-encompassing love.

  Wandering dreamily through the Great Hall of Hampton Court Palace, the beautiful eighteen-year-old Zorina bumps into a startlingly handsome well-dressed young man who immediately steals her heart.
   
  Hardly able to take hers eyes off his face, she finds herself exchanging tales with him of the ghosts that reputedly walk the Haunted Gallery. 
   
  She shows him the many fascinating treasures of The Palace that she has come to think of as her own and then she finds that his name is Rudolf.
   
  And when he says to her, “Au revoir, Zorina, if you are the Spirit of Hampton Court, you are more beautiful than any Queen or Princess who ever graced it!”, a heart-stopping adventure of love begins. 
   
  Zorina has no idea who he is or where he is staying or even how to contact him, but she is counting the minutes until she can see him again.
   
  But then Queen Victoria makes an announcement that dashes all the hopes that are rising in her heart.
   
  As the daughter of a Princess, she is of Royal blood and therefore must marry the much older King Otto of the Balkan Kingdom of Leothia to stop their neighbours from taking over his country by force and also maintaining the Balance of Power in Europe. 
   
  She has no choice but to marry the King no matter how her heart yearns for the handsome Rudolf. 
   
  Little does she know, however, that Fate has another great surprise in store for her!
