Beschreibung
I Will Repay was written by Baroness Emmuska Orzcy and originally published in 1906, this is a sequel novel to the Scarlet Pimpernel. The second Pimpernel book written by Orzcy, it comes (chronologically) third in the series and should be read after Sir Percy Leads the Band and before The Elusive Pimpernel.The story starts before the French revolution. Its 1783 and wealthy Paul Deroulede has offended the young Vicomte de Marny by speaking disrepctfully of his latest infatuation, Adele de Montercheri. Deroulede had not intended to get into the quarrel but has a tendency to blunder into things -- no doubt a part of the inheritance bequeathed to him by his bourgeois ancestry. Incensed at the slur on Adele, who he sees as a paragon of virtue, the Vicomte challenges Deroulede to a duel, a fight which Deroulede does not want -- for he knows and respects the boys father, the Duc de Marny.It is Paris, 1793, the most seething time of the revolution. No one knew in the morning if his head would still be on his shoulders in the evening, or if it would be held up by citizen Samson the headsman, for the sans-culottes of Paris to see. However, the Scarlet Pimpernel, Sir Percy Blakeney, is still at large to rescue Frances aristocrats.
