SYNOPSIS: On the brink of revolution, with a tide of hate turned against the decadent royal court, France is in turmoil - as is the life of one young woman forced to leave her beloved Paris. After a fire destroys her home and family, Claudette Laurent is struggling to survive in London. But one precious gift remains: her talent for creating exquisite dolls that Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France herself, cherishes. When the Queen requests a meeting, Claudette seizes the opportunity to promote her business, and to return home...Amid the violence and unrest, Claudette befriends the Queen, who bears no resemblance to the figurehead rapidly becoming the scapegoat of the Revolution. But when Claudette herself is lured into a web of deadly political intrigue, it becomes clear that friendship with France's most despised woman has grim consequences. Now, overshadowed by the spectre of Madame Guillotine, the Queen's dollmaker will face the ultimate test.
GOOD LUCK!

Have heard good things about this book. Doll making is not a craft your hear much about. The main character lived in such a volatile time.
I'd love to read it.

Hi Amy,
I can't even imagine the Queen having a "doll maker"! Yet with the poltical unrest that the review states I just bet this is a fab book!!!
I love all the books you have posted on your site....great place to come when I'm looking for inspiration as to what to read next!
Thanks so much,

I just can't get enough historical fiction books to read. They transport me back to a time when I would have loved to live. Thank God for wonderful authors who feed my addiction. I'd love to read The Queens Dollmaker. or any other historical fiction that comes along. Thank You.

I've read very little about Marie Antoinette, but I'd love to remedy that situation. The Queen's Dollmaker sounds really interesting - not least because of the Affair of the Diamond Necklace!
I'd love to enter for this one Amy!
