A night of passion becomes a nightmare of accusation when Aramis emerges from the water closet to find his lover-a powerful duchess-murdered in her own bedchamber. The door was locked from within. No one else could have entered. All evidence points to the charming musketeer. <p>Protestations of innocence fall on deaf ears as even Monsieur de Treville, Captain of the Musketeers, harbors doubts about Aramis's claims. With the noose of justice tightening, Aramis has no choice but to flee Paris, his reputation in tatters and powerful enemies in pursuit. <p>His only hope lies with his three loyal brothers-in-arms: the brooding Athos, the boisterous Porthos, and the impetuous D'Artagnan. While Aramis eludes capture, they must navigate a dangerous web of court politics and deadly secrets to uncover the truth. <p>But in a world where powerful interests would gladly sacrifice one musketeer to protect their schemes, can three men stand against all of France? The bonds of their legendary motto-"One for all and all for one"-have never been tested so severely in this race against time where Aramis's honor, freedom, and life hang in the balance.
