The Templar’s Apprentice (The Outremer Chronicles #1):

Outremer, the distant lands. The troubadours sing of its mystical loveliness and tell tales of love and honour woven around the constant battles between Christendom and Islam.

For Honfroy, a young squire in the service of the Knights Templar, the reality is less poetic and far grimmer.

The Kingdom of Jerusalem tenaciously holds onto the ribbon of land between the River Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea. Saladin, the Sultan of Egypt and Syria, has united his warring factions. He is now determined to wipe the stain of the first crusade from the honour of Islam and regain the Holy City of Jerusalem.

When Saladin’s army invades, Honfroy is catapulted into a world of treachery and deceit, where his life is in danger from both Moslem and Christian alike.

From the blood-stained sands of the Holy Land to the intrigue of the court in Jerusalem, Honfroy grapples with his meteoric rise in fortune. His friendship with the new king, Baudoin, comes increasingly under threat from the political wiles of his mentor, Odo the Templar Grand Master, and the king’s mother, Agnes of Courtenay.

Honfroy is enchanted by the beautiful but older Agnes. Not even the power of the Grand Master, however, can protect him when their secret liaison comes to the attention of the king.

Banished from the court, Honfroy’s courage and skills are honed on the kingdom’s frontiers until the day when Odo summons his apprentice once more.

Set against the turbulent background of the crusades, the Templar’s Apprentice is a gripping and enthralling tale of courage, friendship, love and treachery, reaching its blistering climax at the battle of Marj Ayyun.

The Harsh Mistress (The Outremer Chronicles #2):

Outremer. It is this land of ours that is the harsh mistress. She has spawned saints and false prophets for centuries, and I have lost nearly all that I have loved in her service – Honfroy d’Toron.

THE HARSH MISTRESS is the blazing sequel to THE TEMPLAR’S APPRENTICE.

In the aftermath of the Battle of Marj Ayyun, the Kingdom of Jerusalem is once again under threat from its most powerful enemy, the Sultan of Damascus and Egypt, Salah eh Din.

Honfroy, a young lord of Outremer, is in a conflict that rages along the River Jordan, the frontier between the Christians and Moslems. Once a truce has been agreed, he yearns to return to Toron and his beloved Elspeth, but King Baudoin has further tasks for his favourite baron. Honfroy finds himself once again embroiled in court intrigue, and with its major participant, the devious but beautiful Agnes d’Courtenay.

The greatest threat to Honfroy, and to his beloved Elspeth and their unborn child, lies not in the court at Jerusalem but in the forests of Lebanon. An enemy has sworn vengeance and is now ready to strike.

Set in 1179 against the backdrop of the bloody period that was the crusades, THE HARSH MISTRESS is a tale of lost love, of passion, retribution and high adventure. Its story will relentlessly sweep you from the banks of the River Jordan to the mountains of Lebanon, from the deepest dungeon in Damascus to bitter hand-to-hand fighting aboard medieval war galleys as they clash on the Mediterranean Sea.
