What this book is about
Eustacie de Vauban is a young Frenchwoman who yearns for adventure. Sir Tristram Shield is sensible, capable, and thoroughly unimpressed with yearning. When a cousin on the run from a murder charge and an English girl with a passion for adventure arrive, the mystery of the talisman ring and the murder must be solved. Heyer's 1936 novel is one of her most purely comedic — broad, cheerful, and lightly parodic.
