In the glittering court of the Regency, ambition and treachery dance hand in hand.
Paris, 1718. While the young Louis XV grows toward his throne, France lies under the rule of Philippe d'Orléans, the powerful Regent whose iron grip on power has made him both feared and hated. In the shadows of Versailles and the salons of Paris, discontent simmers among the nobility who dream of a different France.
Enter the Chevalier d'Harmental, a man caught between honor and rebellion, whose fate becomes entangled in a dangerous conspiracy that threatens to topple the very foundations of the Regency. As plots unfold in gilded drawing rooms and whispered conversations echo through palace corridors, the chevalier must navigate a treacherous world where a single mistake could mean exile, imprisonment—or death.
From the master of historical adventure comes a tale of political intrigue, forbidden romance, and the price of loyalty in an age when power shifts like quicksand beneath the feet of those who dare to challenge it.
"Usually ranked among Dumas's masterpieces" —George Saintsbury
Will the conspirators succeed in their audacious plot, or will the Regent's spies uncover their secrets before they can strike?
