France, 1685. A wealthy merchant’s family fears for their lives following Louis XIV’s repeal of Protestant rights.
When Jeanne Delpech returns from her chateau to the Quercy capital, she finds her townhouse overrun by mercenary soldiers. The Sun King’s dragoons are given carte blanche to rob, beat, and commit atrocities to force Huguenots (French Protestants) to renounce their religion. Can Jeanne and her husband keep their home and their children without forsaking their faith?
If you love a story rich in historical detail, fast-moving action and powerful emotion, you’ll love Paul C.R. Monk’s brand new historical fiction based on true events.
