In 1832, an American student in Paris was legally blackmailed to search for the ¿Crimson Heirlooms¿ - for a period of no less than five years, upon pain of death.There were precisely two, as defined by the High Court of France.The first was a priceless necklace called the Cross of Nantes.The second was less tangible. It was, ¿the devil¿s song, as he danced across the blood-drenched hills of the Vendée Militaire.¿Both were found.

A sweeping saga spanning decades. The hunt for a treasure worth millions. Part mystery, part history, this is a tale worthy of the classics writers, a legacy of Hugo, Dickens, and Tolstoy. Spanning the decades between 1776 and 1832, it mainly follows Xavier Traversier and Jacob 'Jake' Loring. This tale is a rich medley of philosophic ideas, especially Rousseau. It is a wide-ranging tale, exploring notable events and practices of the time.

My current read. Almost finished but it's been slow going thanks to my attention span....
