Available as paperback and e-book.

It is the time of the great bankruptcy, as Louis XVI and his infamous queen Marie-Antoinette face a tide of rebellious people, tired of their downtrodden treatment, hungry to the bone and deprived. The great events that follow will shake the world and bathe Europe in the bloody wave of the revolutionary wars.
   
Jeanette Baxa, a resourceful, wild young girl, betrayed by her devilish family, is riding this dangerous wave as she struggles to save the lives of her siblings and her mother after failing the great revolutionary leader Georges Danton, a former friend. Gilbert Baxa, Jeanette’s dangerous cousin, joins her enemies and becomes entangled in dark webs of deceit and power as France changed kings into corrupt men. Jeanette finds her refuge in the army, where she and her mother become cantiniére for a light infantry company. Here she finds the tools to fight scheming Gilbert and his nefarious masters in Paris, her new family and here she also finds, perhaps, her love.
 
But in order to survive, she has to find a way to topple very influential men.
