A sizzling sequel to The Red Necklace . . .

A fearless young man fights for love and justice, set against the backdrop of the treacherous French Revolution.

“A luscious melodrama, rich in sensuous detail from horrific to sublime, with an iridescent overlay of magic.”—Kirkus Reviews


Mysterious Yann returns to revolutionary France in 1794 to smuggle out aristocratic refugees who will otherwise face the guillotine. His darling Sido is in England, safe from the Reign of Terror. But while the two are apart, Yann’s Gypsy origins prejudice Sido’s guardian against their marriage, spoiling their longed-for reunion. When Sido is kidnapped under strange circumstances, however, Yann must use all his strength and courage to outwit the fearful count, rescue Sido, and help save all of France.
