Produktbeschreibung

Giovanni Salzano, Jerry Lancaster, and Fulgence Bassot find themselves the sole survivors from the Mont-Cenis pass, eight men losing their lives to overwhelming Swiss forces in a deceptive and delaying action. The sacrifices of the "French Ghosts" become legend and their heroic actions help the main French army pass through the more obscure Col de Larche Mountain pass mostly unnoticed, flanking the Swiss' cavalry base camp at Villafranca and forcing the Swiss to abandon their defensive positions in utter disorder throughout the Alps mountains. Parting ways at a nearly deserted abbey, Salzano and Lancaster head towards rumors of where the rest of Northern Company could be, while Bassot heads towards the main French army. Meanwhile, Father Saul closes in on Salzano's location with the help of Karl von Egmond---the Duke of Guelders---and corners the pair of mercenaries at the Castle of Vettigné. For Edgardo Accardi, he is finally able to complete his life debt to Giovanni Salzano in the dungeon of that castle---but at what cost and who does he betray? Salzano or Saul? For Captain Lafontaine Vayssière and the rest of Northern Company, the company finds itself once again divided as they await news of their comrades from Mont-Cenis. As Father Edward deals with his identity being exposed and Lafontaine threatening to collect on his wanted poster, Zhang Min and Franz Koch expose a scheme to eliminate Northern Company from within the French army itself. As for Klaus Wolff, he confronts the uncomfortable reality and personal fallout of his brother's death. Collecting her willpower to defend the Spanish-Germanic Habsburg dynasty's future, Margaret of Austria starts to unravel the plot that will see her put on the throne as the French Queen. In her quest for justice for her family's legacy, Margeret turns to her ever faithful spymaster, Jean de Marnix. For Marnix, the man must calculate the lengths and depths he must go in order to protect Margaret, both from the Faithful Eternal and from herself... (This book contains several references to alcohol and alcohol abuse, adult language, and violent wartime scenes.)
