It supposes that Princess Diana did not die in an auto accident, but around that time arranged to disappear -- a supposed drowning accident -- and start a new life in the U.S. It's quite intriguing. The events of the novel are triggered by a paparazzi who shows up in the small town she's been living in, and is convinced he's found Princess Di. I quite liked it.
