This novel has been awarded the prestigious B.R.A.G medallion for outstanding self published fiction.
When Sophie de Courcy,the bored but patient and often foolishly romantic companion to the Dowager Countess of Ruthin, marries her long-time hero, the dashing but rascally French émigré Émile Dubois, she has more excitement than she ever wanted as she is catapulted into Gothic adventure with man vampires and time warps.
With the help of her dauntless maid Agnes – who combines Tarot reading with a no-nonsense attitude - and whose own love interest is Émile’s swaggering valet and former accomplice, Georges – Sophie must come to terms with Émile’s criminal past and help free him from the machinations of their evil neighbours.
Set during the French Revolution in North Wales and in war torn France, this story is full of lively humour. It combines believable characters and over-the-top Gothic adventure as a pair of down to earth eighteenth century villains become incongruously caught up in occult happenings.
This funny, sometimes sad and often romantic tale will captivate readers who enjoy a spoof of the Gothic tradition.
