Juhani Kärkkäinen and Tapio Riikonen "Maison-Rougen ritari" by Alexandre Dumas and Auguste Maquet is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of the tumultuous period of the French Revolution, it intricately weaves themes of love, loyalty, and the perilous dance of political allegiances. The story particularly revolves around the character Maurice Lindey, who becomes embroiled in the chaotic events of Revolutionary Paris. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a tense atmosphere on March 10, 1793, as Paris sinks into a state of fear and paranoia. Amidst looming threats both from external enemies and internal factions, volunteers gather to enlist in the revolutionary cause. The opening section highlights a critical moment where Maurice Lindey intervenes to save an unknown woman from arrest by a rowdy group of volunteers during a night of chaos. Their encounter sparks intrigue, placing Maurice at the center of a mix of revolutionary fervor and personal stakes, as the woman’s mysterious identity and situation become entwined with his fate.
