Product Description

Product Description
The Honourable Christopher Fancot, on leave from the diplomatic service in the summer of 1817, is startled to find his entrancing but incorrigibly extravagant mother on the brink of financial and social ruin - and more than alarmed to find that his twin, Evelyn, has disappeared without trace. The unfortunate Kit Fancot is forced into an outrageous masquerade by the tangled affairs of his wayward family - his rigid uncle, Lord Brumby, the surprisingly wily Sir Bonamy Ripple, the formidable old Lady Stavely and Evelyn's betrothed, Cressy - but in the face of Evelyn's continues absence, Kit's ingenuity is stretched to the limit.

From the Publisher
One of best-known and most beloved historical novelists captures a whole new audience in a stunning repackage.

5.0 out of 5 stars An intricate romance, 3 Mar 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: False Colours (Paperback)

This is a fine light-hearted book, beautifully plotted and full of incidental pleasures. The romance is friendly, rather than a grand passion, but that's not really the main focus. It's about family relationships, friendship and kindness, which is a difficult trick to bring off. No villains in this book, just witty, stylish writing and a gallery of delightful characters.

5.0 out of 5 stars If You Prefer Gentlemen Heroes..., 6 Feb 2008

By	JESS (Yorkshire) - See all my reviews

I agree with the other reviewer, it's not a grand passion of a romance. The romance is with a small r and is that between all the main characters. Lots of humour in this one, especially from Kit and Evelyn's mother! She's a smasher!

If you prefer gentlemen heroes rather than rakes, this is one for you. On that note you'd like Cotillion and The Foundling too.
