Set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, the narrative follows two French Hussar officers, D'Hubert and Feraud, whose initial quarrel escalates into a relentless fifteen-year rivalry. Feraud, fiercely protective of his honor, persistently seeks duels after an inconclusive encounter, while D'Hubert becomes increasingly entrenched in the conflict, unable to retreat. Their personal struggle mirrors the larger turmoil of the era, exploring themes of honor, obsession, and the impact of war on individual lives.
