Episode 2

In Paris, in the spring of 1815, Count Antoine Marie Charmans de Lavalette learns that Napoleon has landed at Golfe-Juan. Without delay, Bonaparte's former aide-de-camp helped organize the Emperor's grand return. But things went badly wrong: after the defeat at Waterloo and the return of Louis XVIII to the throne, the white terror set in. Lavalette, one of the first outlaws, was arrested, tried and sentenced to death, before being executed on December 21, 1815.
