description: Madame Campans Academie Nationale is one of the most celebrated schools in all of France and her students are equally illustrious. Meet the impetuous Eliza Monroe - la belle Americaine - whose father will one day be named president of the United States. And Hortense de Beauharnais Josephine Bonapartes stunningly beautiful daughter who has fallen for a man her family will never accept. Meanwhile Caroline Bonaparte - yes Napoleons sister - will stop at nothing to capture the attention of a handsome young general even if it means crossing her brother. And then there is (the original character) Madeleine de Pourtant daughter of a volatile actress in the Comedie Francaise who harbors a secret that could tear apart the world of the dazzling young socialites. Before the term is out one girl will find true love one will be heartbroken and a third girls dreams will take a deadly turn.
