A reluctant Danish Crown Prince arrives in Australia incognito for a gap year. He's half Aussie, after all.
In beautiful central Victoria, he encounters communal living, kangaroos, pagans, children, Aboriginal elders, and psychodrama. His life will never be the same again. Then he falls in love.
As his year runs out, how can he possibly return to royal duties and the military? Fate intervenes tragically when a bushfire descends. Suddenly, impulsively, he sees a way out.
Back in Denmark, his demise is a national tragedy and scandal. In mourning, the nation asks: "How could this have happened?" Detective Ebbe is sent to investigate but uncovers the shocking truth. The game is up, or is it?
A political thriller, a love story, and a crime mystery, this novel, based on a real person, is sure to enthral you, whether you are a monarchist or a republican.
