Book trailer for the novel FOR THE KING by Catherine Delors, author of the acclaimed MISTRESS OF THE REVOLUTION. Coming July 2010.
FOR THE KING takes readers through the dark alleys and glittering salons of post-revolutionary Paris. On Christmas Eve 1800, a bomb explores along Bonapartes route, narrowly missing him but striking dozens of bystanders. Chief Inspector Roch Miquel, a young policeman with a bright future and a beautiful mistress, must arrest the assassins before they attack again. Complicating Miquels investigation are the maneuverings of his superior, the redoubtable Fouché, the indiscretions of his own father, a former Jacobin, and two intriguing women.
Really interesting.

This is a book I would LOVE to read. I have long had a fascination with the Napoleonic Era.
