1796. In the wake of France's Reign of Terror, Guillaume Delane, the Vicomte Desartes, crosses the sea to Ireland with one purpose: to learn his kidnapped brother's fate and bring his captor, the Jacobin zealot Leclaire, to justice. From the stony shores of Galway, the humble halls of a Catholic orphanage, to the alleys of Dublin, Guillaume traverses a country simmering with superstition, grievance, and hardship. Where a blackthorn shillelagh can settle accounts faster than any jury. An orphan house with masked complications, a donation that appears the morning after his purse is cut, a whaling ship slipping out to sea, and confrontations with an Irish faction fighter draw him into a knot of deception he must sever before it tightens - all the while dealing with conflicting emotions for a young Catholic novice. Pursuit becomes a trial: between vengeance and mercy, law and survival, faith and instinct, budding affection, and the dark satisfaction of the blow well struck. Vicomte: The Shillelagh carries on the intrigue of the League of the Quadrumvirate, a saga of friendship, loyalty, hard justice, and the cost of keeping one's honor in a world that has little
