Thanks to a crushing work schedule, it took me weeks to read this new-to-me Pimpernel adventure, number nine in the series chronologically. And that was torture. I was so enjoying the little snippets I read in snatched moments of peace here and there that I just wanted to read the whole thing in one...
It's a real shame the blurb for this book gives away the story. Fortunately, I hadn't read any blurb so had to guess what was coming. That aspect of the story made it really delightful, especially given how it played out. This is probably one of my favourite Pimpernel novels.
