"Hirmuhallitus" by Alexandre Dumas and Auguste Maquet is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. This work is part of Dumas's series that explores the events surrounding the French Revolution, particularly focusing on the intrigues and fates of characters affected by the tumultuous changes of that era, including real figures like Marie Antoinette and the enigmatic ruffian, Maison-Rouge. The narrative sets a dramatic tone as it delineates the intertwining lives of its characters amidst the backdrop of revolution and betrayal. At the start of "Hirmuhallitus," we are introduced to Lorin, who is anxiously awaiting the return of his friend Maurice, while preparing to confront a host of political challenges in the midst of the chaotic atmosphere of revolutionary Paris. As Lorin interrogates his servant Agésilas about Maurice’s whereabouts, the urgency of their plight unfolds: they are deeply entangled in the fate of a young woman named Héloise, who is facing the guillotine. Through a series of discussions and revelations, the opening sets a suspenseful stage hinting at conspiracies, passionate encounters, and the brutal realities of a society on the brink of a radical transformation, with Lorin prepared to embark on a possibly perilous quest to save Héloise and confront the forces that threaten them.
