Downton Abbey meets Agatha Christie in this charming series opener.

What's the best way to forget an unfaithful husband?

Become a spy for British Intelligence, of course.

"A clever mix of humor and espionage that will keep you turning the pages and laughing all the way!" Dianne Freeman

Desperate to get out of London and determined to help the war effort, Fiona Figg volunteers to go undercover.

It keeps her from thinking about Andrew, her philandering husband.

At Ravenswick Abbey a charming South African war correspondent has tongues wagging.

His friends say he's a crack huntsman. The War Office is convinced he's a traitor. Fiona thinks he's a pompous prig.

What sort of name is Fredrick Fredricks anyway?

Too bad Fiona doesn't own a Wolseley pith helmet.

At Ravenswick a murderer is on the prowl, and it's not just the big-game hunter who's ready to pounce.
