There’s a great pleasure in store for you; [not a spoiler] the second Flashman book,
Royal Flash, also is a riff on
The Prisoner of Zenda. So I can easily see multiple influences for Charles; but her own take was original, inspired and totally in canon, too.
Still grateful to you for recommending it!
