The book delves into a tragic historical event in April 1545, when over 3,000 "heretics" were massacred in southern France. It focuses on a small village where twenty-five women and children sought refuge in a secret grotto, only to be betrayed and suffocated by royal and papal troops who set fire to the entrance. This poignant narrative highlights the brutality of the massacre and the harrowing fate of those who sought sanctuary.
