The Laughing Cavalier: The Scarlet Pimpernel Novels

Before the French Revolution, before Sir Percy Blakeney's daring rescues, there was The Laughing Cavalier — the swashbuckling tale of his 17th-century ancestor, Percy Blakeney of old. Set in Holland during the turbulent 1620s, this novel brims with duels, conspiracies, and dangerous plots against the young Dutch Republic. Known for his charm, courage, and irrepressible laughter in the face of danger, the cavalier finds himself entangled in treachery and romance as he battles ruthless foes and navigates a deadly political game. Baroness Orczy's prequel is rich in action, intrigue, and high-stakes drama, showing that the legendary wit, gallantry, and daring of the Scarlet Pimpernel runs deep in his bloodline.
