The Traitor’s Smile
Pimpernelles Book 2
‘Highly recommended. A great follow-up. Chases, balloon flights, plans to break people out of prison, murders, duels...and some superb new characters. The relationship between the girls and the rivalry over Julien, Guy, and two other young men is excellent - it adds spice to their interactions while never taking away from the adventure. ...Patricia Elliott manages to capture the feel of both England and France in the late 18th century. I learnt a lot.’
My thriller The Traitor’s Smile, the second book in the Pimpernelles series, is now out in the UK, published by Hodder Children’s Books. It’s a new complete story about Eugenie from The Pale Assassin, and it also introduces her English cousin, Hetta. (Though it is a sequel to the first book, you don’t have to have read The Pale Assassin to understand what is going on.)
In The Traitor’s Smile, both girls find themselves in appalling danger – stranded in revolutionary France at the height of the Terror and unable to return to safety in England. It has all the ingredients of The Pale Assassin: plenty of romance and suspense, set against one of the most dramatic periods in history.
I do hope you enjoy it!
The Traitor’s Smile is published in the States by Holiday House.
