Books, Manuscripts
On a chilly November night in 1407, Louis of Orleans was murdered by a band of masked men. The crime stunned and paralyzed France since Louis had often ruled in place of his brother King Charles, who had gone mad. As panic seized Paris, an investigation began. In charge was the Provost of Paris, Guillaume de Tigonville, the city's chief law enforcement officer - and one of history's finest detectives. As de Tignonville began to investigate, he realized that his hunt for the truth was much more dangerous that he ever could have imagined. 'Blood Royal' is a gripping story of conspiracy, crime and an increasingly desperate hunt for the truth.
