In Revolutionary France, a grisly murder threatens to derail an ambitious plan to save the condemned king

Céline Laurent stands in the convention hall of the French Republic, watching the deputies vote one by one. Most of them have just one word to say: “Death.” As the night wears on, the outcome of the vote moves beyond doubt, and Louis XVI is condemned to the guillotine. Céline will have just four days to save the king’s life.

As the Revolution reaches a fever pitch, Céline falls in with a group of royalists who are willing to do whatever it takes to keep France from killing its king. Their plan is daring, but just might work—until the group’s leader is murdered in cold blood. Somewhere among the royalists lies a traitor, and Céline and her friends must find him soon, lest they lose their heads before Louis loses his.
