Description

The much-anticipated fifth installment in the inventive and original Pink Carnation series.
After twelve years in India, Robert, Duke of Dovedale, returns to his estate in England to avenge the murder of his mentor during the 1803 Battle of Assaye. Robert plans to infiltrate the infamous, secretive Hellfire Club to uncover the murderer’s identity–but he has no idea that an even more difficult challenge awaits him, in the person of one Lady Charlotte Lansdowne.
Having cherished a romanticized view of Robert since childhood, Charlotte is thrilled by his return. To Charlotte, Robert is all the Knights of the Round Table rolled into one. That’s not exactly the case, but she can’t help but search for the man she loves inside this less-than-pristine package. And while Robert works to dissuade Charlotte from her delusions, he can’t help but be drawn to her innocence and inner beauty.
When Charlotte is approached by Lady Henrietta Selwick to join her in a bit of espionage–investigating a plot to kidnap the king–Robert soon realizes that Charlotte is not only the perfect partner in crime; she’s the perfect partner, period. Caught in a dangerous game with deadly flower-named spies and secret members of the Hellfire Club, Robert and Charlotte must work together to reveal the villain…and confront their true passion for each other.

        November 10, 2008
        Willig spins another sultry spy tale in her fifth installment of the Pink Carnation series. When Robert, duke of Dovedale, returns after more than a decade abroad, Lady Charlotte Lansdowne hopes the romantic world of her novels will soon come to life in the form of a love story between her and Robert. But the duke has come back from India to track Arthur Wrothan, a spy who killed Robert’s mentor, and though his and Charlotte’s reunion culminates in a blaze of kisses, he abandons her to track down his nemesis. On the trail, Robert cavorts with the Hellfire Club, which holds opium-fueled orgies that provide cover for Wrothan. In the meantime, Charlotte’s efforts to help the king throw her again into Robert’s path. The story unfolds within the frame of a contemporary love affair between Eloise, a Harvard graduate student researching spies of the late 18th and early 19th century, and Colin Selwick, descendant of one of the spies who so pique Eloise’s interest. The author’s conflation of historical fact, quirky observations and nicely rendered romances results in an elegant and grandly entertaining book.

      • content: Justine Eyre's tone and pacing change as she shepherds listeners between the two settings of this novel: current and nineteenth-century England. In the present, Eyre portrays grad student Eloise Kelly, who divides her feelings between her lover and the manuscripts for which he is executor. Eyre uses a more measured, precise narrative tone for the earlier period, which involves Lady Charlotte Landsdowne and Robert, duke of Dovedale, who has returned from India to avenge a murder. Willig's fifth installment in her Pink Carnation series also involves espionage amid the Napoleonic era. Historical details like those about mad King George and opium-fueled orgies add real intrigue to this story. S.W. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
