Five hundred years ago, humans burst through a portal between realities bent on conquest. With the help of the Elves from this reality, they tried to eradicate the dragons. Things did not go well, and the invaders moved the Elves to safety between realities and withdrew. The power used to move the Elves backfired through the portal damaging the invaders' reality severely, and the dimensional key in the form of a Diamond sword was left behind. But now after five centuries the sword hidden behind a disguise of steel, has found its way into the hands of Erun Oncant, Sovereign King of Cardoney. A child at play caused the portal to allow a single team of humans through, and they need to recover the key to return home. When they don't find it in the castle they kidnap the Queen, to coerce Erun into returning it.

Five hundred years had passed since Daisy has come to this little planet with the three suns, and four hundred and fifty since her husband had died. As she sat by his graveside, the thought came to her that after all this time it really was time that she got over him. An unexpected visit from a starship, and her first contact with another human being in almost five centuries, awakens in her the need for human companionship, and convinces her that it is time to return to Earth. So together with the Lentor, an intelligent and telepathic, dog like creature who has adopted her, she shifts through the dimensions to arrive back into a place far different from the England of her memories. But not only is it different, something is not quite right. It is as if an evil is lurking, changing, affecting and influencing in areas where it can do the most harm. Some power is planning the overthrow of a society that has lasted for hundreds of years, and not with benevolent intentions.

Despite his reluctance to be a pushover for every waif and stray, Larry agrees to find the sister of a fifteen year old boy who turns up at his office. Having run away from parents that he claims are abusive, he and his sister had been living rough until she disappeared. Larry visits the boy's parents, in Cromwell's Seat, a village some ten miles outside of London, only to hear that MI6 are investigating suspected espionage centred on the local police station. Dragged reluctantly into that investigation, while trying to solve the disappearance, he is suddenly arrested when the boy's mother is found hanged from the seventh tower of a series of fifteen carrying new power lines. The murder of a constable in an unusual manner, a face seen, and vaguely remembered, an MI6 agent who is not quite as he appears to be, a reluctant traitor, the almost fatal shooting of Penny and the death of someone who had come to be his friend, finally brings everything to a head at the foot of the tower.

Enjoy this light-hearted, tongue in cheek Science Fiction story, for Young Adults and Adults. Even though Daisy Weal herself does not appear in this story, it is still part of the series, falling between 'Daisy Weal and the Last Crenian', and 'The Star Queen', and is the fifth book in the series. The flagship of the Star Fleet, HMSS 'The Daisy Weal', named in memory of her, was heading towards the desolate planet of Cren to deliver an archaeological and survey team. When passing through a binary system, an accident happened, and a beam of energy from an unknown source penetrated the ship killing all passengers and crew instantly. The ship's semi-sentient bio-processor took evasive action, and escaping on emergency thrust, it inadvertently twisted space and performed an unintended, and previously thought impossible, hyper jump. As a result, it ended up completely lost, but finds that it has been programmed with an overpowering urge to find a way home.

When the body of the British Home Secretary's son is found in an alleyway where he had been battered to death, Larry Dexxman, a seventy-five year old private detective is thrown into the middle of a political minefield that could easily cost him his life. His only protection is Sally, a tiny Shih-tsu/Yorkshire terrier cross, Penny his twenty-four-year-old assistant and his own combat experience gained in the armed forces fifty years ago. Narrowly surviving several attempts on his life, Larry must try to protect those around him while, at the same time, keeping his promise to the murdered boy's girlfriend that he would find out who was responsible and see that they are brought to justice. Worried that the situation might be terrorist related, the Home Secretary orders his own daughter, Denise, placed under protection as a precaution, but Larry soon realises that it is not enough, and if he can't remove her from danger she could easily be next.
