The notorious fraudster pleads her innocence First edition in English, signed by the author on page 261 as issued, giving the confidence trickster's own account of her role in the Diamond Necklace Affair, a monumental fraud which contributed to the outbreak of the French Revolution. The Diamond Necklace Affair was a cause célèbre across Europe in the 1780s. The incident involved the acquisition of an expensive diamond necklace in the name of Marie Antoinette in 1784.

The complicated web of actors involved has never been entirely unweaved, and many conflicting accounts spread through Europe.
