An "amazing"* debut historical novel (*Ariana Franklin,
national betselling author of Grave Goods) Paris, 1686: When The Bishop of Marseilles discovers that
his young cousin Charles du Luc, former soldier and
half-fledged Jesuit, has been helping heretics escape the
king's dragoons, the bishop sends him far away-to Paris,
where Charles is assigned to assist in teaching rhetoric and
directing dance at the prestigious college of Louis le
Grand. Charles quickly embraces his new life and
responsibilities. ut on his first day, the school's star dancer disappears
from rehearsal, and the next day another student is run down
in the street. When the dancer's body is found under the
worst possible circumstances, Charles is determined to find
the killer in spite of being ordered to leave the investigation.
