Bone-Mend and Salt - Accidental Heretics, #1 - E-book - ePub

How to fight when enemies turn an unjust war against you?Bone-mend and Salt, Book 1 in the Accidental Heretics series, launches an adventure of conspiracy and revenge amidst the crusade against the Cathar heresy in southern Europe in 1210. A Moorish mercenary-mutilated and left to die, harangued by his father's ghost-seeks revenge, since justice is impossible. A French knight, banned as a Cain, longs for respite but must use his sword to battle his betrayers.
A Catalan widow holds her own fate, until a gold-sniffing priest accuses her of heresy. A hidden enemy traps these three in a crusade that's run amok. Dreams of love and hope become impossible when destiny propels these three into a hazardous journey across the Languedoc, where Simon de Montfort is spreading terror to flush heretics from their lairs, shouting over the voices of the troubadours. Bone-mend and Salt is the first book in the Accidental Heretics medieval historical fiction series, deep in the spice-and-intrigue world of southern Europe.
This book includes maps and a glossary of Occitan and historical terms.
