Revolution, dissent and secret plotting - trouble is rife on the streets of eighteenth century Paris.
From the winner of the Historical Writers' Association/Goldsboro Crown Award for Historical Debut Fiction. 'A rare, clever treat of a novel.' Antonia Senior, The Times 1792: the blood begins to drip from the guillotine. The French Revolution is entering its most violent phase, and threatens all Europe with chaos. In the age of the mob, no individual is safe. The spies of England, France and Prussia are fighting their own war for survival and supremacy. Somewhere in Paris is a hidden trove of secrets that will reveal the treacheries of a whole continent. At the height of the madness a stranger arrives in Paris, to meet a man who has disappeared. Unknown and untrusted, he finds himself the centre of all conspiracy. When the world is changing forever, what must one man become to survive? Treason's Spring is a thrilling and meticulous panorama of Paris in the Revolution, and a true delight from beginning to end.
