Outraged when her ne'er-do-well cousin loses a family heirloom in a card game, Mariette dresses as a highwayman and plans to hold up the new owner's carriage, but she is unprepared to fall in love.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
The characterization was very satisfying, but unfortunately the plotline featured the requisite smuggling and espionage theme. Also, I felt it was poorly named. I kept waiting for the Tudor Secret to appear and there to be some plot connection to historical Tudor times. The only Tudor feature was a Tudor rose motif in clothes and jewelry. Also a Tudor ring supposedly featured a sphinx design, and I do not believe that the Tudors traveled to Egypt at all.
