GreekChat.com Forums - For the Gamma Phis and Phi Mus: The Secret History of the Pink Carnation

In the Ways-You-Know-You-Spend-To-Much-Time-On-GreekChat Department, I was in Border's yesterday and immediately thought of the GC Gamma Phis and Phi Mus when I saw this book on a display rack:

From the jacket (and the author's webpage):

Nothing ever goes right for Eloise. The day she wears her new suede boots, it rains. When the subway stops short, she's the one thrown into some stranger's lap. And she's had her share of misfortune in the way of love. So, after deciding that romantic heroes must be a thing of the past, Eloise is ready for a fresh start.

Setting off for England, Eloise is determined to finish her dissertation on two spies, the Scarlet Pimpernel [*] and the Purple Gentian. But what she discovers is something historians have missed: the secret history of the Pink Carnation-the most elusive spy of all time. As she works to unmask this obscure spy, Eloise has more and more questions. Like, how did the Pink Carnation save England from Napoleon? What became of the Scarlet Pimpernel and the Purple Gentian? And will Eloise Kelly escape her bad luck and find a living, breathing hero of her own?

Happy reading, ladies! :D

* The awesomeness of the Scarlet Pimpernel must be acknowledged.

We seek him here, we seek him there,
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere.
Is he in heaven?—Is he in hell?
That demmed, elusive Pimpernel!
