Prince Nicolo of Vienz is irritated by his family and his Prime
Minister continually begging him to be married for the sake of his
country and to prevent it being taken over by a neighbour. He
finally agrees to meet Princess Marziale, the daughter of the ruler
of Bassanz. However when she arrives, the Prince learns by accident
that she is very much in love with the Comte who had been sent to
escort her to Vienz. Because the Prince has no wish to marry
anyone, least of all someone who is in love with another man, he
runs away to Venice without anyone, except his valet, Texxo,
knowing that he is leaving the Palace. He orders Texxo to look
after the horses at a hotel, while he hires a gondola to explore
Venice. On his way down one of the canals the Prince is suddenly
aware that a young girl is leaning out of the window of a grand
house. Then he sees to his surprise that she is deliberately
letting herself down by a rope into the canal. Thinking quickly he
moves his gondola so that she falls into it and she begs him to
take her away before anyone sees what has happened. How the Prince
then finds that the girl he has rescued is incredibly beautiful and
extremely intelligent. And how they set off on a thrilling
adventure, knowing only each others' Christian names and how they
eventually fall in love is all told in this unusal romantic story
by BARBARA CARTLAND.
