August 1572: Minou Joubert and her husband, Piet, travel to Paris to attend a royal wedding, an alliance between the Catholic Crown and the Huguenot King of Navarre, which, after a decade of religious wars, is intended to finally bring peace to France. Also in Paris is their oldest enemy, Vidal, in pursuit of an ancient relic that will change the course of history. Within days of the marriage, thousands will lie dead in the street, and Minou's beloved family will be scattered to the four winds.--
