Showing results for "Eleanor" in Science Fiction & Fantasy

Beauty journalist, and 40-something year old woman, Erica Pells, is tired of feeling invisible and disappearing behind her nematode wrinkles. She’s over the ‘pro-ageing’ articles she is exclusively asked to write (apart from the punny headlines that no one appreciates.) Frankly, she's over most things; getting older, heavy contouring, boring old Wiltshire and her exasperating Mum (who clearly prefers her prodigal brother, Simon).

Frankreich, 1793. Eleanor, einst eine einfache Dienstmagd, ist nun Mitglied der Liga des Scarlet Pimpernel, die sich wagemutig in jedes Abenteuer stürzt, um Menschen - und Vampire - vor der Guillotine zu retten. Diesmal müssen Eleanor und ihre Verbündeten das Verschwinden von Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand untersuchen, eines berüchtigten französischen Staatsmannes und Diplomaten. Dabei kommen sie bald zwei verfeindeten Vampir-Clans auf die Spur, die sich wahrhaft verbissen bekämpfen.

Eleanor, a crowned Miss Indiana beauty queen, was on her way to college with dreams of one day becoming a star. That was until one-night poor decision derailed her plan and life. Years later, drugs and prostitution have her spiraling so out of control that she finds herself on the path to prison.
