I found that I didn't enjoy this one as much as normal - there could be 2 reasons - 1 I read it out of order, and 2 it took a long time before there was a mention of 'royals' and considering that's the title, it was really annoying. Lastly I don't think women are treated or portrayed well in this book at all, although Colbeck is usually charming and polite it upset me that he basically told Madeline off for chasing after him. I'm sure I'll enjoy the rest of the series if I remember to read it in order!

I couldn't get this one in the Railway Detective series on audiobook, so I had to read it with my eyes instead of my ears! And although I enjoy the audiobooks, I think it probably was easier to follow while reading it normally. I certainly enjoyed this greatly - especially further relationship developments -
seeing Madeleine as Mrs Colbeck was fun - after so many books waiting for Robert to first propose and then set a wedding date!

liked the lastest in the railway detective series but felt however that the ending was rushed as the author seemed to be in 2 minds how to end this lastest book in the series

Nice detective, but the story is a bit slow, and the main character's behaviour is just a bit too perfect...
