Marquis de Carabas

Early spring of 1791. The streams babble, the rays dazzle, the ice melts, and the heart melts. In France at this time, heads are regularly chopped off, and on the other side of the Channel, they sometimes lose their own heads too. Gradually, step by step. One day, Cantan de Morlay, a modest fencing teacher who has long settled in London and has almost forgotten his Breton roots, suddenly felt that he was not understanding something. A meeting with a strange family of compatriot-emigrants, who know more about him than he does himself, brought anxiety and confusion into the measured life of the Englishman. Not wanting to be a pawn in someone else's game, Morlay decides to figure everything out and heads to the homeland of his ancestors - to the dense Brittany, where gangs of cutthroat Chouans are raging.
In the next volume of "Masters of Adventure," "Marquis de Carabas" bursts in at full gallop - one of the most brilliant novels by Rafael Sabatini from the era of the Great French Revolution. Ambushes, traps, duels, and shooting from all barrels are guaranteed.
