About this book

"Susanne Alleyn's debut novel, A Far Better Rest, imagines Sydney Carton's missing personal history and makes him the center of the tale as he becomes a major participant in politics, journalism and in the formation of the Republic. He is witness to one of the most gruesome periods in world history as, one by one, the significant people in his life become victims of the guillotine."--BOOK JACKET.
