“The Parisian intrigue as a result of which Napoleon received his first great command – that of the Army of Italy – and the devilish scheming of a pirates’ ‘moll’ queening it among outlaws of the Spanish Main, may seem worlds apart.  Yet in this story of Roger Brook – Mr. Pitt’s most daring and resourceful secret agent – they are knit together by a mysterious episode in the early life of the Empress Josephine.”
