  Paris, 1789. As the shadow of the guillotine falls over a nation at war with itself, three very different women find themselves caught up in the storm of revolution... 
   
  In France under the last Bourbon king, the extravagance grows more outrageous and the unrest of the poor more dangerous. Into this ferment are swept the innocent English Sophie Luttrell, visiting France for the first time; the French aristocrat Héloise de Guinot, who hates the man her parents have arranged for her to marry; and Marie-Victoire, the loyal maid who finds herself immersed in revolutionary politics. 
   
  They are the daughters of the storm which is sweeping France - and over the world. Three women whose lives will be forever marked by this turning point in history and whose passionate struggle for love, liberty - and for life - will have unexpected consequences.

  Praise for The Secret Hunter: 
  4 STARS from Romantic Times: 
  "Saville's romp is intriguing, with amusing characters.... although the sexual content is mild, the sensuality is on the mark, and the villain's identity is up for grabs almost to the end of the book." - Faith V. Smith, Romantic Times 
  "With a wounded hero to sigh over, his precious princess, scandalous secrets about to be exposed and a rambunctious, hairy pug of a matchmaker, THE SECRET HUNTER is definitely a delightful historical." - J.T., Romance Junkies 
  "A lively and engaging Regency romance; author Susanne Saville has crafted a fresh look at the fun that can be had when a hairy matchmaker draws two unlikely protagonists together. Daniel is a hero to admire.... Together with Gwenllian the sexual tension is a palpable thing, humming along through the story....To witness their falling in love is beautiful, romantic and emotional while working together to foil a traitor." - Lettetia, Ecataromance 
  The Secret Hunter was a Finalist in the Desert Rose RWA 2008 Golden Quill contest in the Regency category. It was also a finalist in the RWA Beau Monde Chapter's Royal Ascot Contest.
