These old shades
Author: Georgette Heyer
What was her mysterious parentage? Just one man held the secret, the one she feared most in the world--the iron-willed Compte de Saint-Vire, deadly enemy of the Duke. He would give her the answer--for a price. But could she betray the man she secretly, helplessly loved? And could this proud young beauty bear to face the truth when it came?

This book was a fun departure from most of Heyer's books that I like--it takes place largely in France in the mid-18th century. The main character, Leonie, is a engaging heroine and fun to read about. The hero's brother, Rupert, made me laugh and kept the pace of the novel moving with his commentary. I enjoyed the book.

One of my favorite all time books. I love Leonie and her Signeur, and I love how Georgette Heyer tied together three generations of the family through "These Old Shades," "Devil's Cub," and "Infamous Army."
