It is more than 100 years until the French revolution but France is already a turbulent nation. The 30 years war has spread across Europe fostering alliances and enemies and internal threats from peasants to the nobility are beginning to emerge. Presiding over this fragile state is the King, Louis XIII, and his chief minister Cardinal Richelieu who is feared and loathed in equal measure. Sebastian Morra was born into abject poverty and with terrible deformities and yet through a mixture of chance, guile and courage we follow his journey from these inauspicious beginnings to an unlikely position of influence within Richelieu's inner circle.
