I enjoyed this novel, as it is partly set in France, seventeenth century, and had some of my favourite characters in it, notably Monsieur, the Sun King's brother. It was, also, a book that I found hard to put down, because the characters had a number of issues that needed solving, and that kept me reading, late into the night, to see what would happen. So it was a good page turner. The characters were well drawn, and the research underpinning the novel is accurate. A good read.
