Georgette Heyer's Remarkable First Novel

Diana Beauleigh is caught between two men.

Seven long years ago, Jack Carstares, the Earl of Wyncham, sacrificed his honour for his brother and has been in exile ever since.

Returning to England, Jack pretends to be a gentleman named Sir Anthony Ferndale but makes his living in a most ungentlemanly fashion, as a highwayman and a gambler.

When Jack encounters his nemesis, the Duke of Andover, in the midst of kidnapping Diana Beauleigh, the two old enemies come to blows.

Can Jack save the beautiful Diana from rakes, kidnap and ruin?

Swashbuckling from start to finish.

Loved this book from the 1st time I read it as a teenager. I have read it many times since. The narrated version was terrific except that the mispronunciation of Castairs to Castaris was very irritating.
