Burke and the Pimpernel Affair by Tom Williams

14 January 2022 By Editor

Buy Burke and the Pimpernel Affair by Tom Williams

It’s 1809, and when a mission running agents into Napoleon’s France goes horribly wrong, it’s up to Burke to save the day.

With the French secret police on his trail, can he stay alive long enough to free British spies from imprisonment in the centre of Paris? And how does the Empress Josephine fit into his plans?

Burk and his loyal companion William Brown must use all their cunning and courage to survive as they move from the brilliance of Napoleon’s court and Society parties to the darker Paris of brothels and gambling dens.

Burke and the Pimpernel Affair by Tom Williams is published as an ebook on 14 January, 2022.
