Marguerite is one of the leaders of La Fleche, a group of French men and women dedicated to saving people from the guillotine. Set approximately five or six years before The Spymaster’s Lady, readers are introduced to Marguerite de Fleurignac. Those who have read The Spymaster’s Lady know that William Doyle, one of the greatest British field agents married a French aristocrat named Maggie. No, the reason I struggled writing this particular review is because I felt like my reaction to it was influenced by my reading of and love for The Spymaster’s Lady. The Forbidden Rose is has more of a Mission Impossible feel relying less on secrets and more on suspense to keep the story moving. The Spymaster’s Lady was more No Way Out and there were a lot of secrets and surprises that I didn’t want to give away. This was such a hard review to write and not for the same reason I struggled with The Spymaster’s Lady.
