Summary

Paris, 1912. A German spy steals the plans for a revolutionary "combat aircraft". The inventor's daughter, Germaine Aubry, volunteers to bring them back. 

Disguised as a governess, Germaine infiltrates the highest levels of the German military. When she's finally unmasked and imprisoned, her father and her aviator fiancé call on the ultimate secret agent to help bring her home.

Chantecoq. King of detectives, master of disguise.

But even the mercurial, theatrical Chantecoq will find his ingenuity stretched to the very limits to rescue Germaine Aubry from Spandau Citadel.

Can they save the brilliant, daring Germaine before the evil Colonel Hoffmann transfers her to Germany's deepest dungeons for the next 20 years?

Originally published as Coeur de Française, and translated into English for the first time, this first Chantecoq adventure is a bold pulp tale of honor, patriotism, romance, and selfless heroism. Filled with suspense, fast cars, swordfights, and daring escapes, the action unfolds against a backdrop of growing hostility between France and Germany.
