To safeguard the Crown Jewels from the Nazis, Winston Churchill devises a daring gamble to have them shipped overseas. The priceless artifacts will be secretly removed from the Tower of London and driven north to Scotland by two operatives posing as a young married couple, to be taken from there to Canada.Caitrin Colline-a Welsh coalminers daughter and an ardent socialist-will play the wife of Lord Marlton, Hector Neville-Percy. A less likely couple is at first difficult to imagine. Yet Caitrins bold, streetwise confidence and sharp wits complement Hectors social ease and connections, essential to a second part of their mission: uncovering Nazi sympathizers within the highest ranks of Britains aristocracy.Battling enemies within and without, Caitrin wonders if anyone in their circle can be trusted-even her partner. And when unexpected events catapult her into a life-or-death chase across the continent, the morale of a nation and the fate of Europe itself in the balance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67994060226848,"sku":"NEW149674909X","price":17.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71K_Q_O7VcL.jpg?v=1793031303","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-jewel-in-the-crown-149674909x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
