''Le Bossu: Aventures de Cape et d'Épée. Volume 2'' is a historical novel by Paul Féval, first published in 1858. Set in the Paris of the Regency era (1715-1722), it follows the knight Lagardère as he seeks to aid Aurore de Nevers, who has been stripped of her father, name, and fortune. The narrative features a clever hunchback named Ésope and explores themes of revenge, intrigue, and justice against a backdrop of courtly scheming and financial turmoil, making it a notable work in the swashbuckling genre.
