---------
After eighteen years as a political prisoner, the aging Doctor Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There the lives of two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette. From the peaceful roads of London, they are drawn against their will to the bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror, and they soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.
It's the ultimate mystery novel: characters act strangely, but always for a reason. Miscellaneous people drift in and out, but they're not truly miscellaneous - you just have to wait to see how they're connected. And like any good mystery, the payoff at the end is worth the time it takes to get there...and what a payoff!
The story then takes several big twists and turns before it reaches its final and most unexpected conclusion. As one of the most electric stories created by a brilliant and talented story teller, A Tale of Two Cities is indeed an engrossing and unforgettable experience for readers of all ages.
A Master Classic!
