![]() ![]() ![]() The Prince of Spies reads well as a standalone. This makes her my favorite of this story. I love that she goes through a personal development. Supporting character, governmental photographer Marianne Magruder is very grateful to her powerful father for having given her a privileged life in want for nothing and acts like I would expect for a woman of her time. He spends more time contemplating the value of his work and his future, which makes him very relatable. He seems the character who develops the most through the 3 books, from an entitled thrill-seeker in need of his brother’s rescuing in the first book to a more mature adult who still has a lot of self doubt. Main character Luke Delacroix is a magazine journalist who worked secretly as a government spy. Luke takes part in a test of canned foods, while Marianne’s photography skills prove important in the work for food safety. He meets governmental photographer Marianne Magruder and instantly falls for her, but when they learn each other’s family names they realize they have landed in the middle of their families’ long lasting feud, and it seems impossible to have a future together. ![]() The story is set in 1902 Washington DC, and we follow ex-government spy, now magazine journalist, Luke Delacroix, as he works to improve food legislation. ![]() The Prince of Spies is book 3 in the Hope and Glory series by Elizabeth Camden, published by Bethany House Publishers. ![]()
