Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. At a grand ball organized by bachelor officers of a garrison town in Slavonia, newly arrived Baron Milan Koruga sparks a scandal in the tightly-knit community by pairing off with a young and beautiful debutante, Helene. Milan's reputation precedes him; he is an irresistible charmer with a flair for the dramatic. Young Helene, married to the dull and austere Captain Illreich, falls deeply in love with the dazzling Baron, who, for his part, is equally smitten. This book follows the tangled affair as it develops through stolen glances, whispered secrets, and the full glory of the town's biggest social event. The officers, while jealous of their bachelor lifestyle being disrupted, find themselves unable to resist the lure of marrying Milan off to one of their own. Seeking to resolve the complications of their love triangle and the growing pressure from their social circle, the author explores themes of love, desire, self-deception, and duty in a vivid historical setting.
