Exiled to a Caribbean island, Paoletta
Cadoville and her family cling to the hope of one day returning to their
Parisian home. But in a single, devastating moment, that dream is shattered.
Alone and horrifically scarred, Paoletta embarks on a perilous quest to uncover
the truth behind her family’s tragic fate, only to become entangled in a web of
political intrigue, secret societies, and dangerous alliances.
In a Paris overshadowed by the guillotine, Paoletta must decide how much of her humanity she’s willing to sacrifice in pursuit of vengeance. Will she achieve justice for her family or lose herself to the darkness that threatens to consume her?
Paoletta – An Eye for an Eye is a gripping historical thriller set during the French Revolution and a stark reminder that in times of upheaval, innocence is the first to fall, and revenge demands a price paid in blood.
