Lauren
Willig's
Pink
Carnation
novels
have
been
called
"fun
[and]
fresh"
(Kirkus
Reviews)
and
"clever
and
playful
"
(Detroit
Free
Press).
Now
she
introduces
readers
to
a
mismatched
pair
who
find
passion
in
the
most
astonishing
of
places... Secret
agent
Augustus
Whittlesby
has
spent
a
decade
undercover
in
France,
posing
as
an
insufferably
bad
poet.
The
French
surveillance
officers
can’t
bear
to
read
his
work
closely
enough
to
recognize
the
information
drowned
in
a
sea
of
verbiage.New
York-born
Emma
Morris
Delagardie
is
a
thorn
in
Augustus’s
side.
An
old
school
friend
of
Napoleon’s
stepdaughter,
she
came
to
France
with
her
uncle,
eloped
with
a
Frenchman,
and
has
been
rattling
around
the
salons
of
Paris
ever
since.
Now
widowed,
she
entertains
herself
by
holding
a
weekly
salon,
and
loudly
critiquing
Augustus’s
poetry.As
Napoleon
pursues
his
plans
for
the
invasion
of
England,
Whittlesby
hears
of
a
top-secret
device
to
be
demonstrated
at
a
house
party.
The
catch?
The
only
way
in
is
with
Emma,
who
has
been
asked
to
write
a
masque
for
the
weekend’s
entertainment.
In
this
complicated
masque
within
a
masque,
nothing
goes
quite
as
scripted—especially
Augustus’s
unexpected
feelings
for Emma.
