Told she was an orphan, Cleo Davenport knows the rumor - that her father is none other than the Prince of Wales, heir to the British throne. And at her childhood home at Cairo’s Shepheard’s Hotel, where royals, rulers and the wealthy live, they even called her “The Princess.” But her life is turned upside down when she turns 17. Sent to London under the chaperonage of her very proper aunt, she’s told it’s time to learn manners and make her debut. Cleo longs for independence and a career as a jewelry designer for Cartier, but she can’t move forward until she finds out about her past. Her investigations take a shocking turn into the world of the Parisian demi-monde and a high-class courtesan whose scandalous affair with the young Prince of Wales threatened to bring down the British monarchy.
