You live next door to the Royal Family. Really? Well not quite, the Windsors are a couple of miles away on the Sandringham Estate, 20,000 Norfolk acres bought by Queen Victoria for her son, Edward in 1862. The Royals reach Sandringham by car (coach and horses in the early days) having alighted at the nearest station, Wolferton with its magnificent station master’s house. That’s it on the cover. In 1924, from 100+ applicants, the youngest station master in England won this plum post. How on Earth did George Miracle get the nod? About to start work, he marries Louisa where the one-legged best man gives away the bride in St Peter’s Wolferton just up the road from the SM’s fabulous abode. The Rector has lost his faith and the bride’s stunning in the wedding breakfast venue, the Royal waiting-room in the Royal Station. As the Loyal Toast ends, in walks a VIP who proposes a toast to the bride and groom. What a day! Married life begins and a baby Miracle arrives but it’s heart breaking and the Miracles need a miracle. Louisa was told her father died when she was a baby. Not so and her Belgravia-based half-siblings want her dead. Murder is the solution. Louisa’s father dies and life is never the same as chats with the Royal Family happen regularly on both platforms. ’Good morning, Your Majesty.’ It’s a right royal miracle.
