By E.A. Stewart

Can wit, second sight, and her lover's third-best sword save Taresa of Valeros?She has one task: Pedro of Aragon asked her to guide Yusuf, her scholarly brother-in-law, from Toulouse to Paris, serving as translator for the ways of Troubadour culture. Her own secret goal: to be made a knight when her chore is done.But feral children rob them, a murderer at a Templar monastery frames them as rebels, and renegade heretic hunters arrive in the hills of the Languedoc. An enigmatic woman in crimson promises shelter but leads them into catastrophe. And then the Languedoc world falls into total chaos.In times of madness, some strive for power and others run for shelter. A few do whatever it takes to save the innocent. Can Taresa protect her friends and her hopes when chaos reigns?Wheel and Serpent launches new adventures and conspiracies amid the chaos of the crusade against the Cathar heresy in 13th century southern Europe.Taresa of Valeros first appeared in the Accidental Heretics series when she traveled to Andalusia as a laundry woman in the Aragon army.
