Letters to the Executioner

Paris, 1793. The guillotine does not rest. Inside the damp corridors of the Conciergerie prison, Étienne Voclain —a clerk serving the Committee of Public Safety— transcribes the last words of the condemned. His work is mechanical, detached, anonymous. Until a letter appears on his desk. It is not a testament. It is a warning. And it comes true.

One after another, the letters keep arriving. Each one predicts a death. Each one delivers a sentence before the tribunal does. And all of them are addressed to him.

Who is writing these letters? How can someone know the future? And why has Étienne been chosen as their unwilling confidant?

Caught between duty and conscience, Étienne is dragged into a maze of secrets where the greatest threat is not the guillotine... but the truth itself.

Letters to the Executioner is a historical suspense novel that blends the rigor of historical fiction with the chilling tension of psychological drama. A story about fear, guilt, and the cost of looking justice in the eye—when it’s already too late.
