The Last Child At Versailles - Paperback

by Rose Pascoe (Author)

A gripping dual-timeline tale of revolution and family secrets.

Versailles, 1789. A young girl must draw on every shred of her courage and loyalty, as her adoptive family is plunged into the chaos of the French Revolution. As her world spirals out of control, a vow to save their priceless heirlooms becomes a fight for survival.

Now, after more than two centuries, the family secret is about to be rediscovered in a dusty attic half a world away.

Sophie West is thrilled at the idea of visiting Paris to investigate her mysterious ancestor, especially as a distant relative appears to hold the missing pieces of the puzzle. Fascinating as he is, she must remind herself that this man is a stranger, with unknown motives. And he is not the only one fixated on discovering what she knows about a rumoured treasure. Who can she trust to help her solve the mystery of the girl with the pearl necklace, when her every move is anticipated and she is alone in a foreign land?
