Drachen 4: Clerical Errors

Summary

Daavi and Millie think they're in for a treat.

Daavi's been hired to set up the new accounting systems between the governments of three tiny neighboring countries, along with his accounting systems designer Fran, and Motormouth - Fran's friend and interpreter. They're taking Molly and Merrin - Millie and Daavi's new twins, packing their bags, and hopping a boat headed to Belvique for their assignment.

They're looking forward to a quick, easy job, followed by a week of prosaic scenery, some well-earned, highly paid time away in the beautiful countryside, souvenir shopping, and sampling fine cheeses and wines as a bonus.

But they hadn't really planned on hobnobbing with the duke and his family, and they really hadn't planned on dealing with the people who their clients hired to install their new infrastructure: The Jenovian church of Belvique. The church isn't what it seems, and unfortunately for Millie, Daavi, and their mixed-species tykes, one of the sect's main gripes seems to be with mixed-species families and individuals - even though their 'high prophet' is one!

Laying low might not be an option with dignitaries and tee-vee cameras in their faces, so Millie and Daavi are going to have to be on their toes in this tale of diplomatic discord. They and Fran are going to have to juggle liaisons, ledgers, payrolls, and pontiffs, as well as a surprise appearance from Daavi's ex-wife!
