English Summary/英文概要： Tilly is angry. Her parents are separated, and just when Tilly is hoping they will get back together again, she finds out her dad is seeing someone else. Her mother sends Tilly to stay with her aunt Kara for a few days.
Kara tells Tilly of their ancestress who escaped the French Revolution, and shows her a priceless heirloom which once belonged to her. Tilly falls asleep wearing the ruby talisman, wishing she could escape to a more adventurous life . . .
Meanwhile, in 1789, Amelie-Mathilde is staying at the opulent palace of Versailles on the verge of being married off to the old and haughty Chevalier. Amelie-Mathilde falls asleep holding her own ruby talisman, wishing someone would come to her rescue . . .
Tilly wakes up beside Amelie-Mathilde. The timing couldn’t be worse. The Bastille has fallen and starving peasants are rioting across the country. The palace is in chaos. Tilly knows that Amelie and her cousin Henri must escape from France if they are to survive the Revolution ahead. But with mutinous villagers, vengeful servants and threats at every turn, there seems nowhere to run. Will they ever reach England and safety?
