A Prelude to Versailles: Love and Intrigue at the Paris Peace Conference - Paperback

by Mark Anthony Sullivan (Author)

Nothing had prepared Lieutenant George Murphy for Paris. Before he was wounded all he had seen in France were mud, blood and gunfire in the trenches, but then he is sent to a hospital in the City of Light. After the armistice he is assigned to the American peace conference delegation as one of the few American officers who can speak French. There he faces perils ranging from phony news reports of a crime wave among American troops to being accused of murder himself.
Fiona McDermott is the light of the Irish peace delegation, but British disdain for that body blocks it from being officially seated. For someone so young she exhibits fine diplomatic and social skills but will continue to do only so long as she can escape both her past and the fanatics pursuing her. Only time will tell if George and Fiona can save each other!
