'The intrigue and adventure keep you turning the page in this exciting tale of revolution, vampires and the guillotine' - T. L. Huchu, author of The Library of the Dead
Revolution's a bloodthirsty business . . .
Revolutionary France is no place to be, especially for aristocrat vampires facing the guillotine. But the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel are determined to rescue them. And they have an ace up their sleeve: Eleanor, a lowly maid from an English estate with a striking resemblance to French royalty.
For Eleanor, the League and their legendary deeds are little more than rumour - until she's drawn into their most dangerous plot yet. The mission? Travel to France in disguise, impersonate Queen Marie Antoinette and rescue the royal family. If they succeed, it'll be the heist of the century.
But there's more to fear than ardent Revolutionaries. For Eleanor stumbles across a centuries-old war between vampires and their fiercest enemy. And they're out for blood . . .
Sunday Times bestselling Scarlet is the first book in the Scarlet Revolution trilogy, set during the turbulent French Revolution, and featuring all of Genevieve Cogman's trademark wit and fast-paced plotting. It's perfect for fans of The Invisible Library series, Kim Newman and Gail Carriger.
Continue the series with Elusive, the thrilling follow-up to Scarlet.
'This book is a smart, swashbucking joy. I loved it.' - H.G. Parry, author of The Magician's Daughter

The French Revolution+Vampires - say no more!
I preordered ''Scarlet'' a while ago, and just couldn't wait for its release. The premise of this fantasy, based on historical facts, combined with a strong female lead and VAMPIRES, was just too good to be true. This was such a pageturner, I couldn't put it down! Eleanor spends most of her life working as a servant in a vampiric household, when she gets send to London, to work for Sir Percy (and yes, we are talking about THE Sir Percy AKA the Scarlet Pimpernel). What they want from Eleanor is clear: as bearing a strong resemblance to Marie Antoinette, she could be of great help for the league. A story of espionage commences, it's fun, pacy and there certaintly is a lot going on. The world building is amazing and I can't wait for Eleanor's story to continue!
