Dido Twite is finally back home in London and reunited with her old friend Simon, now the Duke of Battersea and a favorite of King Richard. But no sooner does Dido start to settle in than her rascally father, Abednago, appears and drags her off into the night. Soon Dido finds herself caught up in the midst of another dastardly Hanoverian conspiracy: a plot involving a mysterious double for the king, the miraculous healing powers of music, and a spy network made up of abandoned street children called lollpoops. Meanwhile, out in the forest, starving wolves are closing in on the city.

Book Details
First Sentence
"Dusk was closing in over the South Downs on a fine, bitterly cold, windless evening in late November, a hundred years ago, when the driver of a carriage and pair left his horses tied to a gate on the main Chichester-to-London road, vaulted over the gate, crossed a wide, sloping pasture, walked up a chalk track where the wheel ruts showed white in the hazy twilight, and passed through a grove of beech trees."
