Glad it's not just me who was disappointed! I suspect he just doesn't really know what to do with the heroine until the other sub-plots have finished. I think he should either have left her off-page entirely or given her something to do though: as it is she just hangs around aimlessly/passively.
I see we've got a few books in common. What did you think of "The Merchants' War"?
Sounds like an interesting assortment of careers.
I've added the book from the Symbols of Power exhibition, about Napoleon and the Empire Style. When you get back from your trip, e-mail me and I'll send it to you.
