It looks at the full extent of the battle for power of various dynastic groups, in particular Lord Louis Mountbatten's ruthless scheming to make Britain's ruling family the House of Mountbatten; the abdication of Edward VII; the truth behind the notorious Anthony Blunt and his connection with the royal family; the cover-up of major financial scandals connected with George VI and other kings; and the routine use of euthanasia to dispatch those who inconveniently linger--for example the case of both George V and his widow, Queen Mary.
