Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Exile for Dreamers is the second captivating installment in the Stranje House series for young adults by award-winning author Kathleen Baldwin. #1 New York Times bestselling author Meg Cabot calls this romantic Regency adventure " completely original and totally engrossing. "
It's 1814. Napoleon has escaped his imprisonment on Elba. Britain is at war on four fronts. And at Stranje House, a School for Unusual Girls, five young ladies are secretly being trained for a world of spies, diplomacy, and war....
Tess Aubreyson can't run far enough or fast enough to escape the prophetic dreams that haunt her. Dreams bring nothing but death and grief, and Tess refuses to accept that any good can come from the Sight--the curse that destroyed her mother. But when danger threatens Stranje House, Tess's disturbing dreams become the only means of saving Lord Ravencross, the man she loves, and her fellow students.
Tess's traitorous friend, a former student at Stranje House, has returned to England, intent on paving the way for Napoleon's invasion. Can the young ladies of Stranje House prevail once more? Or is England destined to fall into the hands of the power-mad dictator?
Fans of genre-blending, romance, and action will love this second installment of the Stranje House series that began with A School for Unusual Girls .
