Catherine Delors

Dear Librarian,

Is love possible at a time of terror? What drives people to slaughter innocents? How do you keep your humanity in the face of mass killers?

On Christmas Eve1800, a group of fanatics, bent on assassinating Napoléon Bonaparte, detonates a bomb on a busy Paris street, striking dozens of bystanders. Roch Miquel, a young policeman caught between the treacherous politics of the times, his love for his mysterious mistress and his loyalty to his father, hunts downs the assassins. Only to discover that the chase only leads to harrowing choices between betrayal and justice.

"Themes of class conflict, the messy process of change, and impossible love are woven into the tense central plot of this fast-moving chase through the damp, rutted streets of turn-of-the-19th-century Paris." —Publishers Weekly
