A highly entertaining, wonderfully colourful story, now revealed to be written by one of our favourite
historical novelists. The gilded family had been the envy and the pride of England for centuries. Never
had the Lazenders seemed more powerful or more wealthy. And never had the unseen means of their destruction
seemed so close! Yet the heir to the estate was absent. Toby Lazender worked for the British in Revolutionary
France -- where he hunted down the men who had murdered the innocent girl he loved. It was his sister,
Campion, who oversaw the family's affairs at the 'little kingdom' of Lazen Castle. But Lazen is, unknowingly,
a house under siege. The Fallen Angels -- among the most powerful and dangerous men in Europe -- are plotting
to bring revolution to England. To succeed, they need money, and the Lazender fortune can provide it. The key
to the fortune is control of Campion's future. A web of deceit closes around Lazen, drawing Campion ever
closer to a subtle trap that has been laid just for her. Her only hope for survival lies with the Gypsy -- her
brother's broodingly aloof horse-master -- a man whose loyalties are at best uncertain. The Fallen Angels is
a powerful blend of passion, adventure and intrigue, played out in the shadow of the guillotine and the sunlit
splendour of an English estate. It is a worthy successor to A Crowning Mercy, the first chronicle of the
Lazender family.
