Bonaparte's Conquerors

A cavalry officer roots out conspirators in Paris as Napoleon mounts his fateful coup in this epic historical novel.

France, 1799: As corruption spreads through the ruling Directory and rebels terrorize the countryside, the ideals of the Revolution seem far away. Napoleon Bonaparte returns from Egypt determined to restore order—and take control.

Recalled to Paris to buttress their commander's political ambitions, Alain Lausard and his heroic cavalry unit look on as Bonaparte stages a coup d'état. With Bonaparte under pressure to make peace with France's enemies abroad, Lausard's dragoons are reduced to flushing out enemies hiding in the gutters of Paris.

When Bonaparte prepares to reclaim lost territory in Italy, Lausard is relieved. He owes his freedom to Bonaparte—and only through war can he contain the guilt he still feels for fleeing his family during The Terror. As the French cavalry crosses the Alps, Lausard's men will face their most daunting challenge yet . . .
