The Divine Curse: Desperation
Anton, desperate for glory, is one of hundreds of Cathars besieged in the doomed citadel of Montsegur. Reluctantly he agrees to smuggle a small package to safety and leave the Citadel to its fate. Even more reluctantly he must accept a companion – Anna Marie, feisty, resourceful and able to charm the leaves off the trees. Inside the package lies a secret that many will torture or kill to possess – is it God’s greatest gift which will redeem mankind forever, or ‘the divine curse’, destroyer of Christianity? They flee across a divided, violent and fearful France, pursued by the mysterious Inquisitor. Who can they trust? How far can they trust each other? They have their own demons to face – and a relationship to forge. This enthralling historical novel brings alive the dark world of medieval religion and hypocrisy where innocence is no protection. No protection at all.
