These days we think of surgeons as being at the top of the medical profession—skilled lifesavers, possibly even more important than general practitioners. In the eighteenth and nineteenth century things were very different. Doctors and physicians might be considered gentlemen, but surgeons worked with their hands, and rarely had any formal qualifications, so they were considered artisans, tradesmen. This is the world occupied by Raoul Doulevant, a Belgian surgeon who is proud of his skills but who knows he cannot be considered a suitable husband for the daughter of a marquess.
Cassie is an Arrandale, the errant granddaughter of the Dowager Marchioness of Hune. She is mentioned in the earlier books of this mini-series but never seen, having eloped and run off to France with her husband during the short-lived Peace of Amiens. Now, in 1803, the peace is at an end, Cassie is a widow and she wants to return to England.
This is the story of Cassie and Raoul’s flight through France. It is dangerous, difficult, and as they learn more about each other they realise their worlds are just too far apart for them to find happiness together without momentous sacrifices on both sides.
Enjoy their journey!
