Summary:
"En 1787, alors que la France frissonne déjà d'une révolution inéluctable, le vicomte Jean-François de la Plaine est exilé sur les côtes d'Afrique de l'Ouest pour avoir tué en duel l'ami du Roi. Nommé Gouverneur de Port-Saint-Louis, un comptoir de sable livré aux caprices d'un fleuve, il est alors confronté à l'hypocrisie, la corruption et l'esclavage."--Back of container.
In 1787, right before the French revolution, the viscount Jean-François de la Plaine is exiled to West Africa after killing a friend of the king in a duel. He is appointed the governor of Port-Saint-Louis, where he is confronted with hypocrisy, corruption and the evils of slavery.
