Summary

"Servants of Sin: A Romance" by John Bloundelle-Burton is a historical novel focusing on Armand Desparre, a soldier who has risen to the rank of duke, as he deals with love and ambition in 18th-century Paris. The story centers on Armand's romantic relationships, most notably with Laure Vauxcelles, whose beauty enchants him, even though it may lead to a scandal due to her background. As the novel begins, Armand thinks about his new life and love for Laure in his luxurious room, where past memories of his military life linger as he reflects on the anniversary of his good fortune and title. His peace is disrupted by a letter from the Marquise, who wants to marry him, causing tension between his duties and desires. A confrontational visit from the Marquise suggests a long-standing love, leading to emotional clashes and social pressures that drive the narrative.
