The English kings who rise from their graves in Westminster Abbey on All
Souls' Eve are in a terrible fix. They want visiting New Yorker Charlie
Chancer to use his special IT skills to steal abbey funds and send them
off to queens who have already come to life and escaped the abbey.
Handsome commodities trader Charlie is also in a bind. He has whisked
his young son, Georgie, away to London (amid a bitter custody battle
with his ex-wife) to join his teenage daughter, Ginny, who is on a
student exchange. Tudor queens show Georgie architectural wonders of the
abbey. Plantagenet kings give Ginny picturesque tutorials on their
colourful but devastating battles. But what are the kings to do with
these visitors who have seen their dazzling coronation ceremony and
their daring TV games? Kill them or free them when they may tell what
they have seen?
