(3) YA In 1799, Eliza Monroe (daughter to the future president) arrives at her French boarding school and meets Josephine Bonaparte's daughter Hortense and Napoleon's sister Caroline. She is quickly embroiled in their family drama and the girls' schemes, which grow complicated and dangerous. The prose is somewhat dense, but it's offset by the suspense of the fictionalized insider-look at France's powerful families.
