The Scarlet Pimpernel is set in 1792 during the French Revolution,
but centres on an English hero performing great and brave deeds in
a violent and murderous climate. Marguerite St Just is a beautiful
French actress, who is married to the English fop, Sir Percy
Blakeney. The couple have become estranged as Marguerite has tired
of her husband's seemingly superficial lifestyle. She has heard
about the exploits of the mysterious Scarlet Pimpernel - an unknown
English man - who is daily helping French aristocrats to escape the
Revolution. She is captivated and entranced by the stories
surrounding him, but is soon forced into a position where she must
assist the French ambassador to England in capturing the elusive
man. Orczy's novel unfolds with a series of twists and turns, with
frequent moments of excitement and tension.
