Marry a Catholic stranger, or flee the only world she's ever known...Headstrong Bruna de Gansard must choose one or the other to save her Cathar family from the inquisitors. Toulouse, 1229. The inquisitors have arrived to rid the city of Cathar heretics once and for all, and are putting all unmarried girls over the age of 12 to the question. After an incident in the town calls unwanted attention to 14-year-old Bruna, Alaman de Bosquet-a young Catholic stranger who is sympathetic to the heretics-warns her family about the looming danger, and volunteers to marry their daughter to save her from being questioned. But Bruna doesn't want to be forced into marriage, so she chooses flight-which lands her unexpectedly in the midst of a Catholic pilgrimage to Compostela, thrusting her into a life of deceit. When her beauty and her voice bring her to the attention of the powerful Baron de Belascon, she finds herself caught between her allegiance to her own people and the dangerous secret of her origins-a secret that can be revealed at any time after the arrival of a French knight who recognizes her.
