Scobie aims to disclose the monarchy's dark secrets, potentially burning bridges by revealing uncomfortable truths. However, the book's "revelations" are minor: trivial details of royal life, mild sibling rivalries, and misrepresented discussions about race.

Its most significant claim is the royal family's anxiety about their future without the Queen, a concern already widely recognized.

When compared to other royal scandals, "Endgame" barely scores. It rehashes known information, such as the tension between Kate and Meghan or the controversy surrounding Prince Andrew—initially depicted as a divisive topic before suggesting a united front by his brothers. The book also delves into Prince Harry's grievances over his attire at the Queen's funeral.

Scobie's grasp on royal protocols appears superficial; he confuses basic titles and incorrectly explains royal succession. Additionally, his focus on the monarchy's historical ties to racism, while passionately argued, feels futile and out of place.

The author does provide some perspective on the Sussexes' precarious financial state, questioning their sustainability without typical royal revenue streams and speculating on their future business ventures.

In summary, "Endgame" offers little new insight and may even be a source of embarrassment for Harry and Meghan. It seems Scobie's attempt at a tell-all is ironically out of touch with the royal realities.
