The Pale Assassin by Patricia Elliott

3.0

The Pale Assassin shows the French Revolution from the perspective of young aristocrat, Eugenie. She's thrown into the violence and terror of the period and forced to hide her true identity as one of the privileged. Meanwhile, her brother remains loyal to the King and becomes part of the underground group that is trying to save the Royal family. Vivid with period detail and suspensful with the second half's story of Eugenie's attempted journey to flee France, The Pale Assassin is a great suggestion for teen fans of historical fiction.
