Sobre este audiolivro
Margaret de Ribaumont’s life is a high-stakes balancing act between her English roots and her role in the heart of the French aristocracy during a time of civil war. Her memoirs reveal a world of courtly intrigue, secret alliances, and the personal cost of political instability. As she navigates the dangers of the Fronde, she must use all her wit and resilience to protect those she loves. This rich historical tapestry brings the 17th century to life through the eyes of a woman who refused to be a pawn.
