SummaryFrom the author of The King’s
Favorite—a new novel based on a dazzling and
decadent true story of Restoration England.
The daughter of a poor nobleman, Louise leaves the French
countryside for the court of King Louis XIV, where she must
not only please the tastes of the jaded king, but serve as a
spy for France. With few friends, many rivals, and
ever-shifting loyalties, Louise learns the perils of her new
role. Yet she is too ambitious to be a pawn in the intrigues
of others. With the promise of riches, power, and even the
love of a king, Louise creates her own destiny in a dance of
intrigue between two monarchs—and two countries.
