Imagine being a simple man with a simple job and you answer a ringing telephone and imagine your life changes.... How would you go about your new circumstances?

This is what happened to Orlov. This book was just non-stop! Because of the simple action of answering a telephone Orlov is thrown into a plot of a party that wants to kill the current king. Is constantly being thrown into situations that he doesn't quite know how to figure out until he just does figure it out. It was quite clever how he always seemed to come out on top even though he doesn't know what he's doing.

I would definitely read another book by this author!
