Lauren Willig's Pink Carnation novels are 'sheer fun' (New York Times) and 'sure to please.'(Publishers Weekly) Now she draws readers into a perilous tale of intrigue and deception, in which secrets of identity cannot hide the secrets of the heart . . .

Veteran governess Laura Grey joins the Selwick spy school, hoping to find elaborate disguises and thrilling adventures in service to the spy known as the Pink Carnation. She hardly expects her first assignment to be serving as the governess for the children of André Jaouen, right-hand man to Bonaparte's minister of police.

Jaouen and his archrival, Gaston Delaroche, are investigating a suspected Royalist plot to unseat Bonaparte, and Laura's mission is to report any suspicious findings. And the devious Delaroche is not above threatening those close to Jaouen to get what he wants.

At first the job is as lively as Latin textbooks and knitting, but Laura begins to notice strange behaviour from Jaouen: secret meetings and odd comings and goings. As Laura edges closer to her employer, she is surprised to learn that she has far more in common with him than she originally thought. And Jaouen finds he's hired more than he's bargained for . . . .
