Napoleon used men's swords and women's hearts both in his desperate druggie to retain the power that was dearer to him than life itself. Sir A. Conan Doyle, one of the greatest English masters of thrilling mystery fiction, has woven into the story of the dashing Brigadier and beautiful Countess de Rocquelaine an affair of some missing papers, which both Napoleon and Talleyrand are moving heaven and earth to get. .
