«L'Ange de miséricorde» is the historical novel by Patrick Pesnot, published by Editions Numéro 1 in paperback (276 pages, in French).
In 1688, Violante of Bavaria arrives in Florence to marry Ferdinando de' Medici, who soon returns to excesses. She grows close to her brother-in-law Jean-Gaston, an introverted young man; their attraction is mutual and ambiguous. Cosimo III longs for an heir. With Violante and Jean-Gaston, Florence regains splendour; with their death, the dynasty dies out.
It is the third volume of the saga «La Malédiction des Médicis», which follows the decline of the Florentine dynasty.
For readers of historical fiction interested in the twilight of the Medici and Florence at the end of the 17th century.
