The Scarlet Pimpernel

~by Baroness Emmuska Orczy

A classic, and for a good reason.

The Scarlet Pimpernel is a daring tale set during the French Revolution. A mysterious Englishman, known only as the Scarlet Pimpernel, is devoted to rescuing those that the revolutionaries have condemned to the guillotine. A ruthless French agent is just as determined to find the Scarlet Pimpernel and send him to his execution. And it all hinges on the actions of one woman...

Oh what fun! A smashing good read!
