Paris, 1789. Hunger grips the city. Hope sparks in the streets. One man is about to risk everything for freedom.

Étienne Moreau is a young father with an empty table and a child who cries for bread. Tired of watching his family starve while nobles feast, he joins the tide of revolution sweeping through Paris. From the storming of the Bastille to the march on Versailles, from the trial of the king to the guillotine's fall, Étienne's life becomes bound to the birth of a Republic.

But the Revolution demands sacrifice. Torn between devotion to his wife and daughter and loyalty to the people's cause, Étienne discovers that liberty comes with a price-and that even the bravest heart can break beneath the weight of history.

Richly detailed and deeply moving, Liberty's Flame brings the French Revolution to life through the eyes of an ordinary man caught in extraordinary times.
