Historical
The Reign of Terror has ended six years earlier, and
Napoléon Bonaparte has seized power, but shifting
political loyalties still tear apart families and lovers. On Christmas Eve 1800, a bomb explores along Bonaparte’s
route, narrowly missing him but striking dozens of
bystanders. Chief Inspector Roch Miquel, a young policeman
with a bright future and a beautiful mistress, must arrest
the assassins before they attack again. Complicating
Miquel’s investigation are the maneuverings of his
superior, the redoubtable Fouché, the indiscretions of his
own father, a former Jacobin, and two intriguing women.
