Book Description
This is one of many unsung novels of Alexandre Dumas, and, despite its name, is not related to Werewolves (as his other novel of the period, the Wolf Leader). Written in 1858 (fourteen years after the Three Musketeers), this novel was conceived by one of Dumas assistants, Gaspard de Cherville. The plot takes place between 1831 and 1832 at the confluence of Retz, Pays Nantais and the Marais Breton. Mary and Bertha, twin girls and bastard of a former royalist fighter of 1793, nicknamed "the she-wolves of Machecoul" are drawn into a struggle in which the Duchess of Berry wants to awaken the Vendée royalist spirit to offer the throne of France to his son.At the same time, they both meet and fall in love with Baron Michel Logerie, which, in turn, falls under the spell of the gentle Mary and pledges of love for her, but also, to the Duchess. And while the Vendée plot unfolds, gradually, some secrets are revealed, and we discover the faces of new characters, misunderstandings and insurrectionary events...

Book Description
Set against the backdrop of the Paris Uprising of 1832, ‘The She-Wolves of Machecoul’ is dripping with political intrigue, sinister plots, and knuckle-cracking villains. However, at its heart, the story is a romantic one, focusing on the fortunes of the eponymous she-wolves, Mary and Bertha. While the plot to establish a new monarch unfolds, Mary and Bertha are both smitten with Baron Michel Logerie. But is the Baron all that he seems, or does he have ulterior motives? Filled with thrills, secrets, and historical detail, ́The She-Wolves of Machecoul ́ is a superb adventure story, which will surely delight fans of Dumas' other works. Alexandre Dumas (1802 – 1870) was one of the most popular French authors and playwrights of the 19th Century. After the death of his father, Dumas travelled to Paris where he eventually decided to work in the theatre. He first came to public attention at the age of 27 with his first play, ‘King Henry III and his Courts.’ After a succession of successful stage plays, Dumas turned his hand to writing novels. Many of these were serialised in newspapers, such as ‘La Comtesse de Salisbury; Édouard III,’ and ‘Le Capitaine Paul.’ Many of Dumas’ later works have been hailed as timeless classics and adapted for television and the silver screen, such as ‘The Three Musketeers’, starring ‘Lord of the Rings’ ́ Orlando Bloom, and ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’, starring ‘Superman’ star, Henry Cavill.
