Mightier than a Sword

Description

Mightier than the Sword opens with an IRA bomb exploding during the MV Buckingham’s  maiden voyage across the Atlantic — but how many passengers lose their lives?

Harry Clifton, now president of English PEN, launches a campaign for the release of a fellow  author, Anatoly Babakov, but in doing so puts his own life in danger. His wife Emma, dealing  with the repercussions of the IRA attack on the Buckingham, crosses swords with Lady Virginia  Fenwick, who will stop at nothing to cause Emma’s downfall.

Sir Giles Barrington is now a minister of the Crown, and looks set for even higher office, until  an official trip to Berlin does not end as a diplomatic success. In London, Harry and Emma’s  son Sebastian is quickly making a name for himself at Farthings Bank. But the despicable  Adrian Sloane will do whatever it takes-to remove his rival.
