Description
Revolution's a bloodthirsty business. In 18th century France, aristocrat vampires face the guillotine, but the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel are determined to rescue them. Their latest mission is to impersonate Queen Marie Antoinette and rescue the royal family in disguise. Eleanor, a lowly maid from an English estate, finds herself at the centre of this plot when she's drawn into the League's most dangerous scheme yet. But as she navigates the treacherous world of French Revolutionaries, Eleanor discovers a centuries-old war between vampires and their fiercest enemy - and they're out for blood. Set against the turbulent backdrop of the French Revolution, Scarlet is a smart, swashbuckling tale of adventure and intrigue.
