Description
After the Army of the Republic destroys her father's inn in Brittany, nineteen-year-old Claudie Durand agrees to carry out a dangerous mission for the Legion: she must smuggle a diamond into England and use it to gain military support for the counterrevolutionaries.
Description
1792. Claudie Durand's future will be taking over the family inn, watching her sister, Mathilde, married off to the butcher's son, and living out her days alone. When the Army of the Republic seizes their small village in Brittany during the revolution, Claudie finds herself at the center of the conspiracy. Now she and Mathilde must flee their sheltered life and take up a cause that had always seemed like a distant conflict. Their mission for the resistance: deliver a precious item to the mysterious Rooster of Rennes. -- adapted from jacket
