Synopsis

A young girl finds glamour, adventure, and the romance of her dreams - but fate threatens her love and her life! The one consuming passion of lovely Tona Felton's life has been to travel and forget the monotony of her life as a City typist in London. For Tona, the gleaming, luxurious Balkans Express to a tiny storybook country, is a dream come true. But when her pocketbook is stolen, she is left alone and penniless... until a handsome stranger offers her aid. And, in the quiet elegance of his private railway car, he offers her even more - a lifetime of love. And Tona responds with a passion she’s never known - until, after one intoxicating night in his arms, she awakes to find him gone. Only later will she discover that the lover she has shared a night of passion with on the train is actually European king. Drawn into a world of intrigue and danger - while war clouds gather over the Balkans - she will be plunged into a battle to save a small country and her love!
