ICYMI: my quest to highlight books you may have missed
The Pink Carnation series by Lauren Willig contains twelve books, which were published between 2004 and 2015. I learned about the series in 2013 from my former college roommate and quickly became enamored with them.
The series starts out with present day doctoral student Eloise Kelly, who travels from America to England to study the Scarlet Pimpernel and the Purple Gentian, two spies from the Napoleonic Wars. As she digs into her research, she discovers the secret history of the Pink Carnation, an elusive spy who saved England from Napoleon. From there, the story focuses on the intrigues of the Pink Carnation, occasionally coming back to the present to follow Eloise’s journey.
I thoroughly enjoyed this series with its mix of mystery and romance. Highly recommend checking it out!

Wow, sounds interesting. I enjoyed the Scarlet Pimpernel.

I haven’t read it. I bet it would give me more context for this series.

There is a really good “old” movie you can watch. I’m not sure how you’d find it. I found it on Youtube, but sometimes they show movies, but then they don’t work. https://youtu.be/mf847Zu0XkY?si=ghsaFDTFi-mmImAm
