Synopses & Reviews
The French eventually unmasked the famed spies in the Napoleonic war, the Scarlet Pimpernel and the Purple Gentian, but as Harvard graduate student Eloise Kelly discovers at the start of this breezy historical romance, the identity of the Pink Carnation remains a mystery. Setting off for England to finish her dissertation, Eloise discovers something historians missed: the secret history of the Pink Carnation ?the most elusive spy of all times. A chance discovery of the Selwick family archives launches her into the middle of a true story in 1803, and complications, disguises, romance, and danger ensue.
