To seamlessly incorporate a true historical event into a work of fiction is a challenge that has seen off many a good writer, but Michele McGrath has succeeded admirably in a tale of intrigue and suspense surrounding an attempt on the life of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1800. The characters are well drawn, the atmosphere of post-revolutionary Paris vividly portrayed, but above all this is a cracking good story! Read it... and I promise you'll love the ending!
