The Companions of Jehu

Anotace

The Revolution may be over, but for a band of courageous aristocrats, the fight is only just beginning. This group call themselves \"The Companions of Jehu\". They lead secret lives as highwaymen, using the money they steal to fund the royalist underground movement. They\'re led by Roland, a hero with a mysterious past, whose fate becomes intertwined with Napoleon\'s right-hand man. It\'s a romp that demonstrates Alexandre Dumas\' unrivalled flair for historical fiction. \"The Companions of Jehu\" is the first book in \"The Saint-Hermine Trilogy\", followed by \"The Whites and the Blues\". Dumas never finished the third part, \"The Last Cavalier\". Long thought lost, an incomplete version was discovered and finally published in 2005.
