Yet again Georgette Heyer shows the qualities that made her one of the most successful and best-loved romantic novelists of her age, and why her popularity endures to this day.

'One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's' JOANNE HARRIS

'Heart-stoppingly gorgeous' HARRIET EVANS

'Georgette Heyer is second to none' SUNDAY TIMES
