PURE

Paris, 1785

A year of bones, of grave-dirt, relentless work. Of mummified corpses and chanting priests. A year of rape, suicide, sudden death. Of friendship too. Of desire. Of love…

“His recreation of pre-Revolutionary Paris is extraordinarily vivid and imaginative, and his story is so gripping that you’ll put your life on hold to finish it.”—The Times

THE CHAMPAGNE LETTERS

The Champagne Letters
HER OWN WAR

HER OWN WAR

As Napoleon rises from the ashes of the French Revolution, one woman dares to defy him. Imprisoned for the crime of impersonating a man, Geneviève fears giving birth in an asylum could be certain death for her and her unborn child. Desperate for her release, her husband, Louis, trades his freedom for hers and joins Bonaparte’s army in Egypt. Geneviève spies against the tyrannical general, and in a world of shifting allegiances, she must choose between love and duty, hope and despair, as she fights for her family’s survival.

“For fans of Stephanie Dray’s The Women of Chateau Lafayette.”—Publishers Weekly BookLife Editor’s Pick

HER OWN REVOLUTION

If Poldark were a woman, she would be Genevieve who undermines her father, the man who sends thousands to the guillotine. She forges a treacherous path to save hundreds of lives—including a man she hates yet is the only one she can trust.

“…a suspenseful page-turner with an unexpected love story…A captivating tale of female triumph in the late 18th century. Get it!”—Kirkus Reviews
