Lauren Willig continues the exciting Pink Carnation series
with her fourth novel, The Seduction of the Crimson
Rose, featuring Lord Vaughn, the delightfully devilish
spy from The Masque of the Black Tulip, and Mary
Alsworthy, the raven-haired beauty whose sister
accidentally stole her suitor in The Deception of the
Emerald Ring. Determined to secure another London
season without assistance from her new brother-in-law,
Mary accepts a secret assignment from Lord Vaughn on
behalf of the Pink Carnation: to infiltrate the ranks of
the dreaded French spy, the Black Tulip, before he and his
master can stage their planned invasion of England. Every
spy has a weakness, and for the Black Tulip that weakness
is black-haired women--his "petals" of the Tulip. A natural
at the art of seduction, Mary easily catches the attention
of the French spy, but Lord Vaughn never anticipates that
his own heart will be caught as well. Fighting their
growing attraction, impediments from their past, and, of
course, the French, Mary and Vaughn find themselves lost
in the shadows of a treacherous garden of lies. As our modern-day heroine, Eloise Kelly, digs deeper into
England's Napoleonic-era espionage, she becomes even more
entwined with Colin Selwick, the descendant of her spy
subjects.
