by Baroness Emmuska Orczy
Overview: During the Reign of Terror in France, a brave and mysterious Englishman smuggles French aristocrats out of France and saves their lives. No one knows who he is and no French spies can find him...he has everyone fooled, even his wife.
Positive elements: A well-written, enjoyable story. I loved the suspense of the story and how I had no idea how it would end.
Negative elements: A few swear words
Conclusion: I loved the pace of this great, old classic. So often the classics are monstrous books that take a while to get to the action. This book is much shorter and full of suspense. It has a wonderful ending, and the love story woven through the book is between a husband and wife falling in love for a second time.
