The elusive Pimpernel returns for another swashbuckling adventure
in El Dorado. The still-raging French Revolution continues to claim
lives, and the shadow of the guillotine draws ever nearer to the
young Dauphin, son of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. No one dares
to attempt to liberate the little prince -- no one, that is, but
the mysterious Sir Percy Blakeney, also known as the Scarlet
Pimpernel. Sir Percy takes on one of Robespierre's agents, the
scheming Citizen Chauvelin, in a suspenseful blend of action and
political intrigue, recounted with captivating period detail.
Unabridged republication of the classic 1913 edition.
