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.
