Description
Summary:On the streets of 17th century Paris, law and order is more a fledgling idea than reality, and the Musketeers, Athos, Aramis and Porthos, are far more than merely royal bodyguards for King Louis XIII; they are inseparable, loyal unto death and committed to upholding justice. After Henry IV's assassination his son, Louis, is King and Cardinal Richelieu is Chief Minister. However the growth of the Cardinal's Red Guards sees the Musketeers marginalised and discredited. With the streets of Paris ruled by an iron fist, the future of the Musketeers begin to fight for justice in a dangerous world. The Musketeers come under siege in a convent whilst protecting the Queen after an attempt is made on her life by a crack-shot assassin. Fearful for their lives the Mother Superior and nuns help the Musketeers to defend the convent but what will they do once they run out of ammunition?
