This story tells the tale of how Charles du Luc helps save his former love Pernelle Bayle(now a widow with a young daughter) escape from France to Geneva, Switzerland. Most of the story was very impressive and absorbing, but right when the story gets interesting near the end, the author decides to tell and not show. Then it ended rather abruptly. I'm not sorry I read it, but I wished the author had fleshed out the ending a bit more. Three and a half stars. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieCharles du Luc (0.5)
Judith Rock, the author of the "powerful, absorbing, [and] complex"* historical mysteries featuring ex-soldier turned priest Charles du Luc, presents an original novella about the love of his young life... Pernelle du Luc Bayle is a widow with a young daughter, no dowry to entice a future husband, and a Protestant--a heretic in the eyes of France's Catholic King, and therefore an enemy of the crown. Her only hope of raising her child in her own faith lies in escaping to freedom in Geneva, Switzerland. Pursued by the king's dragoons and unable to trust just anyone with her plight, Pernelle turns to the man she once loved, praying that Charles will be able to help her family reach safety... Features a preview of the latest Charles du Luc Novel, A Plague of Lies, available October 2012 *Historical Novels Review (Editor's Choice) Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
