About the Book

The Essential Rinehart Collection continues with Volume 4 of Mary Roberts Rinehart’s funny and fast-paced novels.  In a change from the author’s usual locations, “Long Live the King” is set in a small un-named European kingdom, a long time ago.  There lived Prince Ferdinand William Otto - a young boy longing for adventure.  One day he runs away from home and sets into motion events that will change the course of history. Both funny and touching, this novel is filled with vivid characters and good old-fashioned rousing adventure.

This multi-volume series features her most interesting novels of mystery, romance, and adventure.
