Some years into the future, the Queen has had about enough of Britain. Fearing she is about to be ousted, she disappears into secret retirement in the Caribbean. That she slips through train stations and customs unnoticed seems a little hard to swallow, bearing as she does one of the world's most recognisable faces. This flawed central conceit could be transcended with some sharp writing, so it is a shame that this is not the case. The book reads like a sitcom hung ponderously on one joke: the Queen's puzzlement at everyday encounters, particularly the horror of having to queue. The questions prompted by the notion of a queen gone awol propel the book, but it's no match for Alan Bennett or Sue Townsend's visions of a wayward monarch.
