Trebuchets in the Garden: Lost in the Languedoc Crusade (Accidental Heretics) (Volume 2)
How do you prepare for the dawn of the Inquisition? TREBUCHETS IN THE GARDEN, Book 2 in the Accidental Heretics series, continues the French medieval adventure of conspiracy and revenge. It’s summer 1210: Simon de Montfort is spreading terror across the Languedoc. Pedro of Aragon cannot persuade Simon to temper judgment with mercy. As the circle of a vengeful conspiracy closes, a mercenary kills his enemy for revenge, but his soul suffers mortal wounds. A banished knight fights for honor in a siege city that’s dying of thirst. A lonely widow writes letters for dying rebels, when enemies condemn her for heresy. Tomas, Isabella, and Jean-Luc continue the journey to restore their honor, find love, and protect their families’ legacy. However, destiny intervenes, and they each become entrapped in the Languedoc crusade—where Simon de Montfort prepares to ignite the next heretics’ pyre. Trebuchets in the Garden continues the adventure that began in Bone-mend and Salt, deep in the spice-and-intrigue world of southern Europe during the Crusader era. This medieval historical fiction book includes maps and a glossary of Occitan and historic terms.
