She achieves an impressive historical authenticity, translating an intricate story into a captivating drama. Anne is a mesmerizingly complex character-decent yet calculating, fierce yet vulnerable. Gaston's writing avoids melodrama-but not at the expense of flair and emotional poignancy. An engrossing and rigorously researched work of historical fiction."</p><p> -<em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p><p><br></p><p><em></em></p><p> </p><br>
