Volume 6: The Difficult SaintISBN-13: 9780312869663 ASIN: B0080K3I7E Published: 10/07/1999 The young French scholar, Catherine LeVendeur, is rather pleased to see off her estranged younger sister, Agnes, through marriage to a German lord. Bitter about their religious differences, Agnes wants nothing to do with Catherine and happily sets off with her sizeable dowry and two knights in escort. But soon one of the escorts returns with terrible news: Agnes' new husband appears to have been murdered, and Agnes is the prime suspect - accused of murder by poisoning, or worse, witchcraft.  Volume 7: To Wear the White CloakISBN-13: 9781466817234 ASIN: B007XV1O6S Published: 10/01/2000 Young ex-novice Catherine LeVendeur is an independent spirit, fiercely loyal to both her faith and her family. Though the two sometimes conflict, with terrible consequences, her life remains committed to preserving what - and who - she loves. But Catherine's loyalty is sorely tested when she and her family return to their French home to discover a Knight Templar has been brutally murdered inside: someone is threatening to reveal her closely held secret about her family's Jewish roots. But Catherine never wavers in her convictions, as she knows it falls to her to discover who would kill a soldier of God and why her family would be targeted in such a horrendous fashion.  Volume 8: HeresyISBN-13: 9780765302465 ASIN: B00C2V4OKC Published: 12/06/2002 Catherine LeVendeur carefully constructed life of faith and family rests on the constant fear of a dreaded secret. Raised a devout Catholic, if her family's Jewish roots are exposed, everything she loves will be destroyed. But how far will she go to protect that secret When her dearest friend, Astrolabe, son of the fabled theologian Peter Abelard, flees wrongful prosecution for the vicious murder of a young woman, Catherine's family offers him a hiding place. But there are darker forces at work. Someone is using Astrolabe to destroy his father's fame and reputation - someone who would relish in the destruction of the very order of Christian life.  Volume 9: The Outcast DoveISBN-13: 9780765303776 ASIN: B008J9XJ34 Published: 12/01/2003 Young Catherine LeVendeur and her nobleman husband Edgar rely heavily on her dearest cousin, Solomon, for his help in their successful trading business. But their relationship must remain fiercely secret. While Catherine's father was abducted as a child and raised a Catholic, the rest of his family are Jewish. The connection would spell ruin - and death - for Catherine's family. When Solomon travels to Spain to make his fortune, he encounters his estranged father, a man who rejected his Jewish faith to become Brother James. When a fellow monk is murdered, James is convinced a conspiracy is at work, and turns to the son he abandoned for help.  Volume 10: The Witch in the WellISBN-13: 9780425219768 ASIN: B0030CVQ44 Published: 11/28/2011 When Catherine LeVendeur's grandfather sends for his family to tell them their well is going dry, Catherine is alarmed. The family's wealth depends on its status, and if the well goes dry, their castle will fall. Her grandfather seems wracked with a fear deeper than that, though - something connected to the mysterious woman who appears at odd moments, who may or may not be the family's ancestral ghost. Catherine doesn't believe in the magical legends her family has handed down over the years: that they are the descendants of a Charlemagne knight and a faerie. She puts her faith and distrust in the human condition. And when bodies begin appearing - not ghostly spectres, but the freshly dead kind - Catherine knows she is right. She must uncover the secrets of the witch in the well . . .  Meet the Authors Sharan Newman Sharan Newman is a medieval historian and author.
