- Abstract: Summary: Ahead of the German Blitz during World War II, English parents sent their children to the countryside for safety, displacing more than three million youngsters. In The Secret Guests, the British royal family takes this evacuation a step further, secretly moving the princesses to the estate of the Duke of Edenmore in "neutral" Ireland. An English secret agent, Miss Celia Nashe, and an Irish detective, Garda Strafford, are assigned to watch over "Ellen" and "Mary" at Clonmillis Hall. The stable hand, the housemaid, the housekeeper, the Duke himself, and other townspeople, some of whom lost family to English gunshots during the War of Independence, go freely about their business in and around the great house. Soon suspicions about the guests' true identities percolate, a dangerous boredom sets in for the princesses, and, within and without Clonmillis acreage, passions as well as stakes rise.
