Description
Robert Merivel, physician and courtier to King Charles II, sets off for the French court in search of a fresh start. However, royal life at the Palace of Versailles proves to be a far cry from the ideal he had envisioned, leaving him in despair. It is there that he meets Madame de Flamanville, a seductive and enigmatic figure who sparks a new dream of a different future. As Merivel navigates the complexities of royal life, his loyalty and skill are put to the test when he is summoned home to attend to the ailing King. Rose Tremain's masterful storytelling brings to life a richly detailed world of intrigue and deception, where the lines between loyalty and deception are constantly blurred.
