The Way Of The Scarlet Pimpernel

The Way Of The Scarlet Pimpernel

The year is 1793, the darkest days of the French revolution, and little Charles-Leon is ill. The delicate son of Louise and Bastien de Croissy is recommended country air, but travel permits are needed â€“ and impossible to come by. Louiseâ€™s friend, Josette, believes she knows a way out. For Josette is convinced that her hero, the Scarlet Pimpernel, will come to their rescue. She refuses to believe that he only exists in her imagination. â€˜I say that the Scarlet Pimpernel can do anything! And I mean to get in touch with him,â€™ she vows, and sets forth into the Paris streets.
