For as long as he can remember, Pierre de Beauvoir’s world has been confined within the walls of a monastery in Reims. Orphaned and raised in solitude, he has never questioned the quiet life laid before him—until the day fate intervenes.

A revelation shatters everything he thought he knew, pulling him from the safety of the monastery and into the heart of a dangerous game of power, deception, and ambition. With enemies lurking in the shadows and whispers of his past threatening to unravel the present, Pierre embarks on a perilous journey through the courts of France and England, where loyalty is fleeting and treachery is second nature.

But Pierre is no ordinary orphan. He carries a secret—one that powerful forces and even his own family would kill to protect… or to destroy.

A Battle for Identity. A War of Deception. A Young Man’s Fate Interwoven with the Future of Nations.

From candlelit palaces to the perilous roads of 17th-century Europe, Pierre must outmaneuver spies, outwit enemies, and uncover the truth about his past before it’s too late. What he learns could change the course of history—or cost him his life.

A sweeping tale of courage, betrayal, love and self-discovery set against the grandeur and intrigue of 17th-century France.
