About this book
A line under the title of And Devious the Line of Duty says that sometimes the most diligent and loyal thing an old man can do is fumble, drink beer, and let a young man get into trouble. Strategic Service's Special Agent George Rockford opens another can of beer, his fifth, and says there will be intrigue already under way when the helicopter sets down with them, and that attempted homicide will soon follow. A paper that Hunter hands back says Terran forces will be outnumbered five to one.
Rockford says that Princess Lyla will be their hostess and speaks of Lord Narf of the Sea Islands, her husband-by-proxy. Rockford says that four days from now the time limit is up and they will be formally married, unless she should do the unprecedented thing of renouncing the proxy marriage. The text describes a hall filled with members of the royal court who had come for the wedding, and the white robes of Church of Vesta dignitaries.
