After a deadly duel with a jealous rival, Pierre de Siorac must travel to Paris, to seek his pardon from the King. In the capital city he finds a world of sweet words and fierce pride, where coquettish smiles hide behind fans, and murderous intents behind elegant bows. But the court's elaborate social graces mask a simmering tension that will soon explode to engulf the entire city.
When it does, Pierre faces the greatest challenge of his young existence - not merely to win a royal pardon, but to escape from Paris with his life, and the lives of his beloved companions, intact.
