The second In the Revolutionary Spy series. Attica Morgan is an English spy living temporarily in Paris, helping nobles to escape. At the same time a killer is at large and his victims are female aristocracy. His next casualty is one of those who Attica is trying to assist. Attica enlists the help of her old friend and pirate, Jemmy Avery. It’s not going to be easy with a mob on its way to storm Versailles!
I loved the first book in the series, The Bastille Spy, so I was looking forward very much to reading The Scarlet Code. I’m pleased to announce It didn’t disappoint! It’s another fabulous adventure story and took me on another rollercoaster of a ride. It’s fast paced and action packed and I just love the characters of Attica and Jemmy. They make a great intrepid duo. Historical fact is combined with fiction making it a well researched piece of writing. It’s beautifully written with a smattering of humour. There is a good sense of time and place as there was in the first book, I almost felt I was there. The mob’s anger as they stormed Versailles was palpable. Scary times!
A fun and entertaining read which had me gripped until the end. Highly recommended for all those swashbuckling thriller fans out there!
