Produktbeschreibung

The most terrible criminals…have long memories. Now that the threat of a war between England and France has been foiled by Chief Inspector Malet's initiative and courage, life can flow again like the river that flows through Paris. Malet and Elise are planning their wedding, which will take place near Christmas. Larouche has found a place to live, where he can earn some money and, perhaps, find an occupation that will suit him. Since his employer and landlord is in no hurry to make him work, Larouche has a chance to learn about medicine while dealing with a pack of students with mayhem on their minda. And then chaos descends as a police precinct is attacked by insurgents and its Chief Inspector is killed. Malet finds many leads: some revolutionary students and a would-be master criminal who view Malet as a thread to be exterminated. Suddenly the people that Malet holds dear are being attacked, and it is clear that he is marked for assassination, himself. Elise is planning for their wedding, Malet is dealing with a troupe of bodyguards apparently recruited from the Sureté. …And who are the Watchers in the Shadows? It should be a hectic Christmas. You will love this well-researched Historical adventure, because the mystery intrigues, the romance entices, and the twists keep you turning the pages. Get it now.

Autorenporträt

Diana Wilder was born in Philadelphia and grew up all around the United States courtesy of the United States Navy. Perhaps because of the Irish in her, she liked to weave stories for her own enjoyment about the people she met and the places she saw during her travels. She graduated from the University of North Carolina with a degree in ancient and medieval history and experience in journalism.

Her love of storytelling developed into a love of writing. She wrote her first novella, based on Kamehameha's Hawaii, in middle school. She started writing novels in graduate school and has produced four novels set in New Kingdom Egypt: The City of Refuge, Mourningtide, Pharaoh's Son and A Killing Among the Dead, all part of The Memphis Cycle. Another volume, set after Mourningtide and prior to Pharaoh's Son, will be published under the name Kadesh.

The heartbreak and gallantry of the American Civil war has always caught her imagination, and she served as a Docent in the Civil War Library and Museum in Philadelphia for some years. The Safeguard arose from her research into the Georgia theater of the war.
