MADAME ROYALE is the epic saga of Marie-Antoinette's daughter, Marie-ThŽr�se-Charlotte. The period which follows the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, called by historians "the Bourbon r estoration" (1814-1830), was outwardly one of rest and peace for France. Yet beneath the surface, the forces of revolution were engaged in a ruthless duel for power with those of the reaction. At the center of the drama one woman, consumed by a quest for love and restoration, struggles to survive amid deception and betrayal. A tale of murder, mystery and secret romance, the novel searches the conflicted heart of the orphaned princess who from childhood had been called "Madame Royale." Show more
