Paris, 1792. The guillotine never rests, and the nobles of France are running out of time. Their only hope is a mysterious Englishman known by a single clue, the small red flower he leaves behind. They seek him here, they seek him there - but who is the Scarlet Pimpernel?

Baroness Emma Orczy’s swashbuckling classic follows a secret league of daring English gentlemen who snatch condemned aristocrats from the Reign of Terror, one impossible escape at a time. Marguerite Blakeney, once the most celebrated actress in Paris, is caught in the middle. The ruthless French agent Chauvelin offers her a terrible bargain - uncover the Pimpernel’s identity, or her beloved brother will pay the price.

Packed with disguises, close calls, and a heart-pounding race to the French coast, this is the original masked hero story, often credited as the blueprint for Zorro and Batman.
