In the opulent court of King Louis XIV, the renowned musketeers navigate a treacherous landscape of power and deceit. D'Artagnan, now Captain of the Musketeers, faces his most formidable challenge yet, as the enigmatic Man in the Iron Mask languishes in the Bastille, his true identity a closely guarded secret.
