Description

American millionaire Theodore Racksole buys London’s Grand Babylon Hotel on impulse and finds intrigue, scandal, and real danger behind the velvet service. With his resourceful daughter Nella he digs into political secrets that threaten the house he has just purchased. Mystery, wit, and high-society risk in Bennett’s hotel thriller. Spoken as when buying luxury opens a door you cannot close, and the staff know more than the guests.
