The Bronze Eagle: A Story of the Hundred Days
The Hundred Days: that breathless window in 1815 when Napoleon escaped Elba and marched toward Paris while Europe held its wound. Baroness Orczy, creator of The Scarlet Pimpernel, returns to the era that made her famous with a tale of fractured loyalties and forbidden loves. Victor de Marmont, an ardently devoted Bonapartist, greets the Emperor's ship as it approaches the French coast with the fervor of a man watching his destiny arrive. His pragmatic English friend, Bobby Clyffurde, sees only the political catastrophe brewing. Between them stands Crystal de Cambray, a woman whose heart and allegiances pull in opposite directions as royalist schemes tighten around her. Orczy weaves the intimate drama of personal ambition against the ticking clock of history - every conversation charged with the knowledge that Waterloo looms. This is romance as it was meant to be: dangerous, politically fatal, and utterly consuming.
