| Richard Ellington was a man of many identities; he could fit into any situation necessary. His superior, Mr. Farmington, had created the persona necessary to have the world’s best spy for the British Army. Mr. Farmington sent Richard to Constantinople, his place of birth, to find out what happened to two informants hired by the British to keep information flowing concerning the Germans and the Turkish.
Richard was known as a great storyteller; he did not, however, expose the truth behind his elaborate tales. His birthplace was somewhere he did not get to visit often since the war was so involved, but his contacts still were available to him at all times. Richard was able to infiltrate any situation and foresee more than most others were aware of. He had friends, uncles, cousins and a myriad of people who were willing to help him get the information needed at any time. This is the story of an army which was at a standstill because of a theft of necessary monies to keep the units moving. Richard’s immediate assignment was to find that source and get the information needed to correct the problem. How he accomplishes this task, as well as undermining the local government officials trying to eradicate him from their midst is essence of Ms. Mueller’s story, The Dancer’s Secret. This is a quick read which can alleviate your sense of adventure!
