Excerpt from Les Exploits de Capestoc
Déjà tout là-haut, dominant les futaies, il apercevait la tour de leglise de Galluis, et il poussa son cheval, car le soleil, ayant presque achevé la moitié de sa course, marquait qu'il pouvait bien être dix heures.

In this book, the author takes us back to 17th century France, a time of political upheaval and religious conflict, to unravel the threads of a mysterious crime that took place in the vast forests of Yvelines. Through the eyes of Henri de Capestoc, a young Gascon lieutenant in the Cardinal's guard, we become part of a thrilling tale. On a seemingly uneventful journey to visit his friend, the Duc de Belyeuse, Capestoc stumbles upon a gruesome murder scene. A respected village priest has been brutally killed and the mystery behind his death deepens when Capestoc discovers a sealed envelope hidden within the church. The plot thickens as Capestoc becomes the target of relentless attacks by unknown assailants, all seeking to possess the mysterious envelope. As he fights for survival, he delves deeper into the enigmatic world of secret societies, uncovering a conspiracy that reaches the highest echelons of power.

The author paints a vivid portrait of 17th century France, immersing readers in a world of duels, court intrigue, and the constant threat of violence.
