Description
On the eve of battle, passions run high. In the summer of 1815, Brussels is a whirlwind of parties and soirees, with the Duke of Wellington and his noble aides de camp at its centre. Here, amidst the social scene, Lady Barbara Childe makes her mark. With dashing Colonel Charles Audley by her side, Lady Barbara's wild behavior is on full display. But as the Battle of Waterloo rages just miles away, she discovers where her heart truly lies. In this dramatic and romantic tale, Georgette Heyer masterfully weaves together the intricate social scene with the demands of love, life, and war. Wonderful characters, elegant writing, and perfect period detail come together in a story that is both rapturously romantic and deeply engaging.
