The Last Vend E Or The She Wolves Of Machecoul

This is one of many unsung novels of Alexandre Dumas, and, despite its name, is not related to Werewolves (as his other novel of the period, the Wolf Leader). Written in 1858 (fourteen years after the Three Musketeers), this novel was conceived by one of Dumas assistants, Gaspard de Cherville. The plot takes place between 1831 and 1832 at the confluence of Retz, Pays Nantais and the Marais Breton. Mary and Bertha, twin girls and bastard of a former royalist fighter of 1793, nicknamed "the she-wolves of Machecoul" are drawn into a struggle in which the Duchess of Berry wants to awaken the Vendée royalist spirit to offer the throne of France to his son.At the same time, they both meet and fall in love with Baron Michel Logerie, which, in turn, falls under the spell of the gentle Mary and pledges of love for her, but also, to the Duchess. And while the Vendée plot unfolds, gradually, some secrets are revealed, and we discover the faces of new characters, misunderstandings and insurrectionary events...
