Nothing goes right for Eloise. The one day she wears her fresh suede boots, it rains dogs and cats. When the subway stops short, she’s constantly the one tossed into some stranger’s lap. Plus, she’s acquired a lot more than her talk about of misfortune in the form of love. Actually, ever since she recognized romantic heroes are a thing of the past, she’s chose it’s time for a fresh start.Setting off for England, Eloise is set to finish her dissertation on that dashing couple of spies, the Scarlet Pimpernel as well as the Purple Gentian. But what she discovers is usually something the finest historians have skipped: the secret background of the Red Carnation-the most elusive spy of all time. As she functions to unmask this obscure spy, Eloise stumbles across answers to all kinds of queries. Like how did the Pink Carnation save England from Napoleon? What became from the Scarlet Pimpernel as well as the Crimson Gentian? And will Eloise Kelly escape her bad luck and find a living, breathing hero all her own?
