Description
Summary:After four years at war, the Musketeers return to a Paris seething with violence and poverty. A seemingly indifferent King has entrusted his affairs to corrupt new Governor of Paris, Philippe Feron. When he joins forces with amoral gangster and financier Lucien Grimaud, their combined hunger for legitimate power makes them a deadly threat to the people of Paris - and the Musketeers' most dangerous enemy yet. Ordered to the heart of this urban powder keg, the Musketeers are charged with preventing catastrophe. Still, they have their own battles to fight. The future of the English monarchy rests on the Musketeers' shoulders after Louis orders them to recover his sister the Queen of England's missing crown jewels. It's a daunting mission, made more complicated when they unmask the thief - the irrepressible Emile Bonnaire. Fighting every instinct, the Musketeers must place their faith in their old adversary to hunt down the diamonds. The ensuing mayhem tests each Musketeer's loyalties to the limit, and a surprise reunion results in heartbreak for Aramis. Meanwhile, Feron seizes an opportunity to avoid personal scandal.
