Anna-Laura was left alone in the face of the adversity that befell her. The help of a friend and new love not only kept her on the edge of the abyss, but also revived her to a new life full of dangers and exciting adventures. Anna-Laura de Pontalec disappeared in the whirlwind of the turbulent events of the French Revolution. Everyone thinks she's dead, but she's alive, she just changed her name.

However, Laura cannot remain indifferent to what is happening around her. The suffering and death of the royal family, the bloody power of terror force her to join the fight for the trampled ideals of goodness and mercy together with the man whom she had the imprudence to love...

Having returned to her native Saint-Malo in Brittany, Laura Adams, aka Anna-Laura de Pontalec, dreams only of a new meeting with her lover, Baron de Batz, from the d'Artagnan family, who lost King Louis XVII, whom he saved, and that , as if to rescue the last prisoner from the Temple - the daughter of King Louis XVI, who was executed on the scaffold. In Paris, the Convention is living out its last days, and the game of love and death is becoming more cruel than ever. After Valmy's cannons, the Vendémière's cannonade shatters Laura's fate: now she alone must bear on her shoulders the burden of the last secret of the Bourbons, the secret of a woman without a name, who was nicknamed the Countess of Darkness.
