Rafael Sabatini

The Marquis of Carabas Rafael Sabatini

"A sweeping romance of thrilling adventure in which the daring swordsman Quentin de Morlaix became both traitor and savior to claim his French birthright and to win the hand of the beautiful but unobtainable Mademoiselle de Cesnières." The French Revolution is well under way when Quentin de Morlaix, already sympathetic to these disenfranchised French aristocrats, finds that he too has his own personal reasons to pray for an end to the Revolution. He sets off for France, and enters a life of confusion, mystery and suspense - and bloody execution.
