Amazing Faith — Leslie Waller

Amazing Faith is Her Serene Highness Princess Faith, wife of Prince Florian Gulda, ruler of San Sebastian, a small principality on the Mediterranean. -- Like its neighbor, Monaco, San Sebastian is a glittery watering hole for the rich and famous, and its princess, like Monaco's, was once an American film star, renowned for a certain elegant sexuality.

The plot involves a scheme by organized crime to gain control of San Sebastian's lucrative gambling operations by financing a new harbor. Intrigue exists on all levels. Even the Guldas' son Michele and daughter Paola become involved.

Faith's long-time friend, singer Maggie Rose, has criminal associates, and palace chauffeur Eugenio Magari is in reality an officer in San Sebastian's secret police.
