Book Overview

An exciting and thrilling story from bestselling author Georgette Heyer, known as the Queen of Regency romance, legendary for her research, historical accuracy, and her extraordinary plots and characterizations.

Such a daring escape...

Their infamous adventurer father has taught Prudence Tremaine and her brother Robin to be masters of disguise. Ending up on the wrong side of the Jacobite rebellion, brother and sister flee to London, Prudence pretending to be a dashing young buck, and Robin a lovely young lady.

Could cost them both their hearts...

Then Prudence meets the elegant Sir Anthony Fanshawe, and Robin becomes the mysterious hero of the charming Letitia Grayson, and in order to have what they truly want, the two masqueraders must find a way to unmask themselves without losing their lives...

About Georgette Heyer

Georgette Heyer (1902-74) is considered the founder of historical romance. Heyer's first novel, The Black Moth, was published when she was nineteen, and she became a bestselling novelist at twenty-four with the publication of These Old Shades. Inspired by Jane Austen, she published Regency Buck in 1935, creating the Regency romance subgenre in the process. Despite her popularity, Heyer never gave an interview or made a public appearance (though she once accepted an invitation to lunch with Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace). Over the course of her career, Heyer wrote more than fifty books.
