  Fans of outlaws and vigilantes will enjoy this classic adventure tale of a sword-fighting hero out for revenge during the French Revolution.   A lawyer of unknown parentage raised by nobility, André-Louis Moreau had little concern for the plight of the lower class and the vast inequality in France until his friend, Philippe de Vilmorin, is killed in a duel after demanding justice for a murdered peasant. Outraged, Moreau speaks out against the aristocracy and his words sow the seeds of revolution.   Wanted by the law, Moreau assumes the role of Scaramouche, the clown character in a group of traveling actors. His swashbuckling adventures include inciting a riot mid–theater performance, apprenticing at a fencing academy, and discovering a revelation about his past that leads to an unexpected romance.   Utilizing his mastery of swordsmanship and oration to combat the corrupt nobility, Moreau is an iconic character whose story explores class, inequality, and the power of an individual to influence his society.

  An amateur sleuth searches for a killer among the aristocracy in 1930s Australia in a novel by the author of The Woman in the Library: “[A] witty hero.” —Library Journal (starred review)Finalist, Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for Best First Book Sydney, 1931. Rowland Sinclair doesn’t fit with his family. His conservative older brother, Wilfred, thinks he’s reckless, a black sheep; his aging and declining mother thinks he’s her son who was killed in the war. Only his namesake, Uncle Rowly, a kindred spirit, understands him—and now he’s been brutally murdered in his own home. The police are literally clueless, and so Rowly takes it upon himself to crack the mystery. In order to root out the guilty party, he uses his wealth and family influence to infiltrate the upper echelons of both the old and the new guard, playing both against the middle in a desperate and risky attempt to find justice for his uncle. With his bohemian housemates—a poet, a painter, and a free-spirited sculptress—watching his back, Rowly unwittingly exposes a conspiracy that just might be his undoing. “Will delight traditional mystery buffs.” ―Library Journal (starred review)   “Fans of Kerry Greenwood’s Phryne Fisher series, rejoice.” ―Historical Novels Review   “The plot effectively plays Sinclair’s aristocratic bearing and involvement in the arts against the Depression setting, fraught with radical politics . . . And Sinclair himself is a delight: winning us over completely and making us feel as though he’s an old friend.” ―Booklist (starred review)
