Description:"Once again, as in "Scaramouche," the 'prince of living story-tellers' takes the turbulent period of the French Revolution as the background for a new novel of thrilling adventure and glowing life. Half gentleman and half valet, half wolf and half fox, Citizen Chauvinière enters the prison to hear the list of the condemned read to the waiting nobles. Shrinking away from the jailers, Madame de Montsorbier and her daughter, Cléonie, hear the name of the mother read, but no that of the daughter, and learn that Cléonie has been saved by the infamous Citizen Chauvinère for a fate worse than the guillotine. Following his own designs, he takes her in disguise as his secretary to the provinces. But the fox is not clever enough to escape, and when in a battle of wits and pistols he is forced to confront the Vicomte de Corbigny, he is finally defeated, and the book ends to the rhythm of hoof beats and the chime of wedding bells. Here again Sabatini reveals his ability to make of time past something that has the vitality of the present. Never has his dexterity of plot, his deft workmanship and swiftly flowing style been shown to better advantage." -- dust jacket.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
