By: Lyon Media & Book Promotions & Author, Carl Baker 14 Days In July, July 14 is France’s national holiday, celebrating the fall of the Bastille fortress in Paris in 1789, and the beginning of the French Revolution. No one, of course, knew that was all going to happen at the time. This historical novel by writers Carl Baker and Marc Heberden traces the wildly dramatic events in Paris during those last two weeks, following a group of revolutionaries being chased by the police, and harboring in the midst a deadly secret which is leading them to be betrayed at every turn. France is undergoing a political upheaval unlike anything it has known before. Louis XVI is using savage mercenary forces and food blockages, to bring the people to heel. The country is a powder keg, and Paris is the fuse. In the midst of what could become bloody chaos, shadowy people including the sinister and brutal chief of the Paris police-discover that a young Parisian laundress, Michèle Duvallier, whose fiancé is imprisoned for his political activities, knows a deadly, ancient secret that could shake France’s monarchy to its core. The pace of this novel makes it a real page turner, with intricate puzzles intertwined with captivating suspense and a mystery involving not only the conspirators, but linking them to the excesses of the French court of Louis XIV, the legend of the Man in the Iron Mask and even the Three Musketeers. The quality of the writing is superb, right up the incredible twist at the end, taking place within the amazing depiction of the storming of the Bastille. A page-turner with an amazing ending.
