Poppy Denby, Arts and Entertainment Editor at The Daily Globe, covers an exhibition of Russian Art, hosted by White Russian refugees, including members of the surviving exiled Romanov Royal family. There is an armed robbery, a guard is shot, and the largest Faberge Egg in the collection is stolen. The egg itself is valuable, but more so are the secrets it contains within - secrets that could threaten major political powers. Suspects are aplenty, including the former keeper of the Faberge Egg, a Russian Princess called Selena Romanova Yusopova. The interim Bolshevik Russian ambassador, Vasili Safin inserts himself into the investigation, as he believes the egg - and the other treasures - should all be restored to the Russian people. Poppy, her editor Rollo, press photographer Daniel, and the other staff of the Globe are delighted to be once again in the middle of a sensational story. But, soon the investigation takes a dark turn when another body is found and an employee of the newspaper becomes a suspect...The race is on to find both the key and the egg - can they be found before the killer strikes again?

This was such a fantastic read! And the audiobook was simply extraordinary: kudos to the wonderful actress bringing it to life- it was a treat!It was a whirlwind of adventure and mystery with our beloved Poppy and I devoured this book. The historical aspects of the novel felt profoundly researched and made the settings incredibly vivid.The characters’ development and the way it was perfectly entangled with the plot was exquisite.Fiona Veitch Smith can do no wrong in my book and I can never stop recommending her fantastic writing to anyone: her books feel alive, rich and addictive.
