Paoletta by J.R. Powell
Exiled to a Caribbean island, Paoletta Cadoville and her family cling to the hope of one day returning to their Parisian home. But in a single, devastating moment, that dream is shattered. Alone and horrifically scarred, Paoletta embarks on a perilous quest to uncover the truth behind her family’s tragic fate, only to become entangled in a web of political intrigue, secret societies, and dangerous alliances.
In a Paris overshadowed by the guillotine, Paoletta must decide how much of her humanity she’s willing to sacrifice in pursuit of vengeance. Will she achieve justice for her family or lose herself to the darkness that threatens to consume her?
Paoletta – An Eye for an Eye is a gripping historical thriller set during the French Revolution and a stark reminder that in times of upheaval, innocence is the first to fall, and revenge demands a price paid in blood.
About J.R. Powell
J.R. Powell is a British-born writer and professional translator based in Switzerland. A lifelong history enthusiast with a particular interest in the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars, he began writing Paoletta – An Eye for an Eye while living in Paris. He’d long wanted to create a thriller with the pace and punch of modern crime fiction, but set in a period too often left in the margins of the genre.
The book began as a few lockdown notes and quickly took on a life of its own. When he’s not writing or translating, Powell is a drummer in the United Nations jazz band and an avid traveller.
