The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue

When Henry Montague's father sends him on a Grand Tour of the Continent, eighteen-year-old "Monty" is only looking forward to unsupervised partying, drinking himself into oblivion, and waking up in strange beds. Joined by his best friend Percy (whom he's secretly in love with) and his sister Felicity (imagine Hermione Granger with a passion for medicine), Monty soon gets into trouble during a party at Versailles—trouble that leaves the trio running for their lives across 1700s Europe. As they race to unspool the mystery of their pursuit, different sides of each character (even self-absorbed Monty) emerge. Full of all the adventure, romance, and fun of a good summer read, A Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue introduces three memorable characters whose stories you won't want to end (thank goodness Lee has a 2018 sequel in the works: The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy!).
