Produktbeschreibung

Paris, 1789. The scent of revolution hangs heavy in the air, a potent mix of blood, gunpowder, and the desperate hopes of a starving populace.  Céleste de Valois, once a duchess draped in silk and privilege, now navigates the treacherous cobblestone streets cloaked in shadows and secrets.  The brutal execution of her brother, Armand, a reformer branded a traitor, has shattered her world, leaving behind a burning thirst for vengeance. Stripped of her title and fortune, Céleste becomes Citoyenne Aurore, a revolutionary agent wielding coded messages like daggers, each missive a calculated risk in her deadly game to expose the true architect of the Reign of Terror. Her target: the enigmatic Prince Jules, whose fiery rhetoric ignites the passions of the masses.  Their first encounter in the shadowed catacombs beneath the city is a clandestine dance of suspicion and unexpected attraction.  As Céleste infiltrates Jules's inner circle, their alliance, forged from necessity, blossoms into a dangerous liaison, each stolen rendezvous a gamble against the ever-present shadow of the guillotine.  But Jules, a master manipulator, hides secrets as deep as the catacombs themselves.  Is he a true idealist, or a puppet dancing to a darker tune? Meanwhile, Elodie Moreau, a streetwise urchin and Céleste's loyal informant, navigates the city's underbelly, uncovering a conspiracy that reaches the highest echelons of power, a conspiracy that implicates not only the aristocracy but the very heart of the revolution itself.  As the lines between ally and enemy blur, Céleste uncovers a shocking truth about her brother, a truth that throws her entire mission into question and forces her to confront the ghosts of her past. Caught in a whirlwind of betrayal, desire, and revolutionary fervor, Céleste must choose: betray the man who has stolen her heart to avenge her brother, or embrace a future built on lies and manipulation. Amidst the chaos of the storming of the Bastille, their confrontation explodes, culminating in a heart-wrenching choice that will determine not only their fates, but the very destiny of France.  With the city ablaze and the revolution spiraling into a bloodbath, Céleste must uncover the true face of the enemy, a face hidden behind the mask of revolution, a face that may be closer than she ever imagined.  For in the dangerous dance of revolution, even the most skilled players can find themselves swept away by the tide of chaos.
