PARIS,1793.The blade of the guillotine falls on the neck of the King himself,and the spirit of the French Revolution lies in tatters.
The Reign of Terror has begun.
Yann Margoza,the mysterious young man known as the magician,is helping
desperate people to escape to England, where Sido,the girl he loves,waits to hear from him.
But Yann's past haunts him.He is in
grave danger,and so is Sido.For under the streets of Paris,in the catacombs,the howl of a great beast can be heard.And a boy with angelic looks and an evil heart is ready to do the bidding of a man who has made a pact with the devil.
A thrilling tale of secrets,of locks and keys,of murder,revenge and romance,written with the vividness and passion that made 'The Red Necklace' such a fantastic success.
