Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Played out against the backdrop of 18th century London and the real-life events that inspired Alexander Pope's "The Rape Of The Lock", this is a witty and sophisticated historical debut novel by a glamorous academic, and is described as 'like Jane Austen writing "Dangerous Liaisons"'

What would you do if you were faced with a dangerous temptation you feared you couldn't resist? This title tells the story of the real-life seduction of the beautiful, clever Arabella Fermor by the charming, enigmatic nobleman Robert Petre, seventh Baron of Ingatestone.
