hrjI am delighted to announce the release of my free e-story "The Mazarinette and the Musketeer", being an adventurous romp through late 17th century France in the company of spies, swordswomen, and duchesses.
In the turbulent France of 1678, Hortense Mancini, Duchesse Mazarine takes on the disguise of a King’s Musketeer to pursue her love affair with Anne Lennard, Countess of Sussex. She crosses paths with a true Musketeer, and with Aphra Behn, English playwright and spy, both seeking to retrieve letters between the kings of France and England that could prove ruinous. Every disguise and plan is threatened by the arrival of a young woman who seeks to gain fame by besting a Musketeer in a duel—and now she has a chance to challenge two of them!
Available for download in epub, mobi, and pdf formats.
I hope you enjoy this novelette. If you do, tell all your friends! And whatever you do, don't skip the historical notes at the end of the story.
