"They seek him here, they seek him there. Those Frenchies seek him everywhere. Is he in heaven, is he in hell, that damn elusive pimpernel."
Thoughts- entertaining and mysterious, and suspenseful. The novel must have been a weekly incremental magazine or newspaper installments because the story is summed up at the beginning of each chapter. It is interesting to have most of the novel from the perspective of Maragarite rather than Percy. What must it have been like to have been a smart woman in that time period with a "fool" for a husband, yet there is something always alluring and mysterious about him especially how he handles the reigns of his horses. Overall it was an enchanting story of sacrifice and love and finding the man and woman behind the mask.
