Heresy brought death and terror to thousands in Medieval Europe and the slightest threat of dissent could bring down the deadly wrath of the Church.
Deep in the heart of the southern French mountains, in the ancient kingdom of Languedoc, people live their own way and sometimes feel free to make up their own minds about religion: an often deadly mix. The wars against the Cathar heretics were not a brief affair of a few campaigns, but a struggle that spanned generations as forces loyal to the Vatican brought fire and slaughter in waves of warfare that savaged the region.
Wandering into this deadly killing zone could be a hazardous undertaking.
A Templar Knight and his two supplicants arrive to solve the mystery of a missing member of the Order. Hoxton, a young Oxford scholar banished into the harsh comfort of the Templars by his own brush with Church orthodoxy and Drysdale, son of a famous knight and a born fighter, follow their Knight as they come face to face with one of the deadliest religious struggles in Medieval Europe's history.
