Baroness Emmuska Orczy 
El Dorado 
An Adventure of the Scarlet Pimpernel

Baroness Orczy’s classic adventure novel El Dorado is the sequel to The Scarlet Pimpernel and was first published in 1913. Set in 1794’s Paris — which "despite the horrors that had stained her walls — has remained a city of pleasure, and the knife of the guillotine did scarce descend more often than did the drop-scenes on the stage."
