It is 1804 and Great Britain stands in the grip of the Great Terror. Bonaparte’s ‘Grande Armee’ is stationed at the port of Boulogne poised to invade Britain at the first opportunity. Only the English Navy under the command of Admiral Nelson, and blocking the major ports of France and Spain, stand in Bonaparte’s way. What is more, a spy is feeding information to the French about the strength and position of the English Fleet.
Lady Julianna Llewellyn, with her fluent French, exceptional beauty and retentive memory has the exact requirements needed to expose this traitor and collect data. She could infiltrate the enemy’s lair and retreat without anyone ever knowing that she had been there. But how to purloin her from under the nose of her protective brother and guardian, Lord Jack Llewellyn, the Earl of Kirkleatham who refuses his permission.
As Julianna is secreted onto the mission, it takes Kirkleatham’s partner, Lord David Westray all his ingenuity to keep this warring brother and sister apart, and as he does so he finds himself falling for Julianna’s unfailing spirit.
As they enter Boulogne, with its influx of French soldiers and infiltrate the very sanctum of Bonaparte’s naval commander, Admiral Bruix, their skills are tested to the limit, and then things inevitably start to go wrong.
Can they all escape France with their mission accomplished and do so without Julianna and Lord Westray falling in love along the way?
And can Julianna avoid falling foul of a certain amorous French Major and the very dangerous spy they are hunting?
A Napoleonic spy adventure with romance along the way.
