After four years at war, the Musketeers return to a Paris seething with violence and poverty. A seemingly indifferent King has entrusted his affairs to corrupt new Governor of Paris, Philippe Feron. When he joins forces with amoral gangster and financier Lucien Grimaud, their combined hunger for legitimate power makes them a deadly threat to the people of Paris - and the Musketeers' most dangerous enemy yet. Ordered to the heart of this urban powder keg, the Musketeers are charged with preventing catastrophe. Still, they have their own battles to fight. In pursuit of Grimaud, the Musketeers stumble across a battle-scarred village where the women thrive without men. Quick-witted leader Juliet is quick to warn the Musketeers off. Is she simply protecting her community, or is she hiding something? When a gang of hardened war deserters attack, the Musketeers must earn the women's trust to help them defend their independence - unearthing a secret history far darker than anything they've encountered before. Meanwhile at the Louvre, Anne makes a bold confession to secure her son's future.
