First appearance: i
As a supporting figure in Sir Percy Hits Back, Marguerite Blakeney is not background color—the story leans on what they do once the chapter opens.
Mentioned as Lady Blakeney, who will care for Fleurette in England.
Marguerite exists in the early chapters as the absent lodestar of Blakeney's double life, the ladyship whose imagined glance makes Tony's grime a divorceable offense. Her presence shadows the League's work: the men who risk everything for strangers are also husbands and gentlemen who measure themselves against her. As the rescue of the Frontenacs unfolds, her name keeps the stakes personal, reminding readers that the dandy's heroics are performed by a man with a marriage to return to.
