Escape to Freedomx$26.09
It is 1687 and the "Sun King" of France has grown frustrated by the challenges of the Protestant "heretics" and sends his dragoons into Southern France.
Pierre Jaubert, a shy young farmer, living in the village of La Motte d'Aigues in the sun-kissed hills of Provence, is catapulted Him into the life of an "outlaw" when he impulsively attacks a vicious Dragoon Captain. The officer swears revenge as the festering scar on the cheek fails to heal. The very last thing Pierre wanted to be - was a hero! He is forced to join a tidal wave of Huguenots trying to escape France. Huguenots caught fleeing are faced with imprisonment or death. Attend a colourful village wedding of Isabeau Richarde - a woman Pierre has secretly admired - as she marries into the Mallan family. Follow both Pierre's many disastrous attempts to reach safety - and the parallel escape attempts by Isabeau and her Mallan family.
