A historical novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The story is set against the backdrop of 16th-century France and revolves around the tumultuous events surrounding the execution of a man named Salcède. The narrative begins with a vivid description of a crowd gathered at the closed gate of Saint-Antoine, where various characters discuss the impending spectacle of Salcède's execution and the political tensions of the time. At the start of the book, we are introduced to a bustling scene outside the closed gates of Paris on October 26, 1585. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation, as people speculate on the fate of Salcède, a prisoner of notorious intrigue and political conflict. Key characters, including the observant Robert Briquet and two other bourgeois, engage in conversation about the crowd's reactions and their fears of chaos. As they discuss the likelihood of disturbances, an unknown man, later revealed to be Briquet, showcases his physical prowess by helping others navigate the tumult. The opening establishes a sense of urgency and foreshadows the unfolding drama connected to Salcède, emphasizing themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the public's fascination with punishment.
