After „The Three Musketeers” and „Twenty Years After” the adventurous story of Athos, Porthos, Aramis and D’Artagnan continues! Against a tender love story, Dumas continues the suspense which began with „The Vicomte de Bragelonne” and will end with „The Man in the Iron Mask”. Can it be true that the King is in love with the Duchess d’Orleans? Or has his eye been caught by the sweet and gentle Louise de la Valliere? No one is more anxious to know the answer than Raoul, son of Athos, who loves Louise more than life itself. Behind the scenes, dark intrigues are afoot. Louis XIV is desperate to solidify his position as absolute ruler of France. Impending turmoil forces the Musketeers and d’Artagnan to come out of retirement, but is it for the right reasons? A fantastic continuation of Dumas’s famous saga, „Louise De La Valliere” constitutes a must-read for fans of his work, and would make for a worthy addition to any collection.
