1789. The Bastille has fallen... As Parisians pick souvenirs from the
rubble, a killer stalks the lawless streets. His victims are female
aristocrats. His executions use the most terrible methods of the ancient
regime. English spy Attica Morgan is laying low in Paris, helping nobles
escape. When her next charge falls victim to the killer's twisted
machinations, Attica realizes she alone can unmask him. But now it seems
his deadly sights are set on her. As the city prisons empty, and a mob
mobilizes to storm Versailles, finding a dangerous criminal is never
going to be easy. Attica's only hope is to enlist her old ally, reformed
pirate Jemmy Avery, to track the killer through his revolutionary
haunts. But even with a pirate and her fast knife, it seems Attica might
not manage to stay alive.
