Ségolène Royal emerged in the presidential race without anyone really understanding where she drew her ambition from. Driven by a secret wound, free from scruples, and entrusted with a mission, she chose to bypass the Socialist Party (PS) and François Hollande. Only a few close associates understood the incredible scenario unfolding between the first secretary and the candidate. Few realized the magnitude of the challenge she posed to the socialists and to her relationship, by shaking up militant reflexes and sidelining the "elephants." Torn between her party and her close guard, ready to overturn all dogmas to save her chances, she unwillingly led her camp to a fatal defeat, marking the end of Mitterrand's PS.
