BOOK ONE

RESURRECTION

A former Templar. A captain of the Inquisition. A young survivor carrying a secret.

Beauvais, 1294. Barthel, captain of the Inquisition guard, has begun to question the orders he is expected to carry out. When an assault on the forge of Jehan and Anna ends in bloodshed, their son Gauvain escapes with one instruction from his mother: find his uncle Hugo.

Hugo is a former Knight Templar who has withdrawn from the world near Montségur. The message forces him back onto the road. As Barthel’s doubts deepen and Hugo searches for his nephew, both men are drawn into a conflict involving the Inquisition, the Church and the political ambitions of Philip the Fair.

THE AUTHOR

HENRI STRINATI

Historical fiction rooted in a lifelong fascination with the Middle Ages.

Henri Strinati is a French novelist with a longstanding fascination for medieval history, its political conflicts, religious tensions and the people who lived through them.

His historical fiction grows out of extensive reading and research, but also from places. Medieval fortresses, Templar and Hospitaller commanderies, old towns and churches across France and Italy all contribute to the world of his novels.

Through adventure and fiction, he seeks to immerse his readers in another period while remaining closely grounded in its history.
