Bone-mend and Salt (Accidental Heretics Book 1)

Fight or beg for mercy when enemies turn an unjust war against you?
BONE-MEND AND SALT, Book 1 in the Accidental Heretics series, launches an adventure of conspiracy and revenge amidst the crusade against the Cathar heresy in southern Europe in 1210.

A famous crusader, home in the Pyrenees after the loss of Jerusalem, teaches paratage—the honor that pumps life’s blood in the world of the troubadours—but finds treachery and murder instead.

A Moorish mercenary—mutilated and left to die, harangued by his father’s ghost—seeks justice with a sharp dose of revenge.

A French knight banned as a Cain seeks respite, with a sword to battle his betrayers.

A Catalan widow holds her own fate—until a gold-sniffing priest accuses her of heresy.

Can these children of ruined crusaders unite to fight their own disasters while trapped in a “crusade” run amok?

The current edition includes maps and a glossary.
