About this audiobook
Dollmaker Claudette Laurent fled Paris for London after tragedy destroyed the life she once had. But life is not easy in a new country that despises the French. Nevertheless, she establishes her doll shop again and soon has English society wild for her fanciful creations. Moreover, Claudette finds a surprising new customer in Queen Marie Antoinette, an avid doll collector herself.
That royal favor, though, will prove to be dangerous for Claudette when she decides to journey back to France for an audience with the queen despite the growing fanaticism and civil unrest in her home country. Soon swept up in a web of political intrigue by unknown malevolent forces, Claudette finds herself deemed an enemy of France. Her fate is either disloyalty…or death.
Glittering with atmospheric period detail, The Queen’s Dollmaker is the first in the Royal Trades series.
