The French Duchess
September 25, 2017
The Plot:
Like the Englishmen who faced down the French army, the men who love Marielle
Petersham, Duchess of Stonegreave, usually die. Hence, the ton has dubbed her the French
Duchess. After a particularly notorious indiscretion, Marielle retires from society, deter-
mined to immerse herself in good works to wash the stain from her family name for the
next generations.
Captain Sir Richard Campion despises his childhood friend for the mess she’s made of
her life, especially since it led to his best friend’s death. But now Richard has been tasked
by the Crown to stop a plot to assassinate Napoleon Bonaparte that could plunge Europe
back into war. Marielle is the one person who holds a clue to the plotters, and so he must
seek her out and discover where her loyalties lie, even if it involves a bit of subterfuge.
Reviews Welcome.
