Fred is a strange child. For a start, she has ten fathers - and she's a soldier.
Discovered as a baby in the midst of one of the bloodiest battles of the Napoleonic Wars, Fred is adopted by a regiment. Her life resembles a soldier's tall tale: a world of prophesies, curses, mystery, magic and impossible feats of derring-do.
Her fathers are a bunch of loveable rogues: a dashing escaped slave; a temperamental chef; the thief-king of Paris; and even the greatest swordsman in France (at least in his own mind). Then there is Sulpice, a brute so huge and terrifying he makes grown men cry.
Together, they search for the truth of Fred's birth parents, whilst keeping her hidden from the cruel clutches of Capitaine Giche. A shadowy society is uncovered, along with a plot to bring down the revolution - and a race against time begins. With the future of France at stake, Fred and the regiment must pick up their pistols and rush into battle once more...
