Based on the riveting novel by Paul Mahalin, itself a sequel to the bestselling series of Three Musketeer novels by Alexandre Dumas, this play is set in 1678, 17 years after the events in The Last of the Three Musketeers. Joel de Locmaria, unbeknownst to himself, is the illegitimate son of Porthos, one of the three original Musketeers. Suddenly he finds himself drawn into the center of French politics and intrigue under King Louis XIV. The play retains all the flavor and excitement of the Dumas originals, coming to a surprising climax worthy of the Master himself.
