I Will Repay

By: Orczy, Baroness Emma

First published in 1906, I Will Repay is the first sequel to The Scarlet Pimpernel, though it is not chronologically the next story in the series. Following the immense success of the first novel, Orczy was well aware of the demand for her to continue to release works featuring her popular character. This novel begins with a short section set in 1784, relating the story of the wealthy Paul D roul de, who causes great offence to the young Vicomte de Marny. The disagreement escalates to the point of a duel, despite D roul de's attempts to defuse the situation and the young aristocrat is killed in the dispute. When Marny's fourteen-year-old sister, Juliette, learns of his death, she swears to seek revenge against the man she blames for murdering her brother. She has been told that it is only after D roul de has been punished that her sibling's soul will be able to rest in peace.
