identities! Misplaced royal scions! English country houses! The Foreign Office! Russia! Austria! Unrepentant eccentric spinsters of awkward height!

I love this series.
Three dimensional secondary characters, espionage, European politics, AngloJewish history, and flimsy nightgowns, It has it all. I did not realize that this was theth book in a series, I started it three times, The third time, I got halfway through and marked it "didnotfinish", I was thoroughly confused, and I wasn't interested enough to go get the first three books in the series so that I would understand theth book.
The book was all over the place, it seemed, You HAVE to read prior books in order to understand this one, I believe, Good book I liked how it incorporated actual history into it, I thought that the ending should have been a little longer and the epilogue a couple months in the future instead of days.
