Freedom, Equality, Brotherhood - and Death. This is what the French Revolution became for the main characters of the historical-fiction novel by Andrei Valentinov. But Death, reigning in revolutionary France, is not omnipotent. A deserter, a former officer of the royal army, who crossed the line, no longer wanting to kill, returns to life - without a name, without memory. For what? How long? What hasn't he done yet? Robespierre and Danton, royalists and sans-culottes, the last of the ancient people of the Dergs and the creators of the first radio transmitter are the heroes of the famous novel by Andrei Valentinov, one of the founders of the genre of cryptohistory.
