After decades of service and years of watching her family's troubles splashed across the tabloids, Britain's Queen is beginning to feel her age. She needs some cheering up and decides to visit Britannia, the former royal yacht now anchored near Edinburgh and the site of many happy memories. Hidden beneath a hoodie, Elizabeth walks out of Buckingham Palace and heads for a public train at King's Cross. But a characterful cast of royal attendants has discovered her missing. In uneasy alliance a lady-in-waiting, a butler, an equerry, a girl from the stables, a dresser, and a clerk from the shop that serves Her Majesty's cheese set out to find her and bring her back before her absence becomes a national scandal. Comic and poignant, fast-paced and clever, Mrs Queen Takes the Train is a delightful debut that tweaks the pomp of the British monarchy, going beneath its rigid formality to reveal the human heart of the woman at its centre.
