Publisher's Synopsis
During the time of the First Crusade, the Church and the Lords of the land are fearsome and powerful. God has spoken. There is Holy War-no place for concepts of love and mercy. In this world, Father Leone awakens to find himself in the Lyon Monastery, his head full of memories of other times and places-other lives. Since childhood, he has been gifted with visions on an Angel who guides him in the "Truth." After Leone heals a critically injured child, the Angel appears before him in the form of a woman-a woman who has searched for him across space and time. Inspired, Leone teaches those truths to his students at the Lyon Monastery with little thought of consequence. However, fearful of retribution the Church may levy upon them all, Leone's superior, the Abbot, writes Archbishop Beckett for guidance, evoking and immediate and hostile response from the Archbishop's subordinate, Bishop Yolee, custodian of the populace while the Archbishop and his warlords are away, believes Leone's teachings threaten the bishop's position in the name of love and life everlasting-an intolerable situation. Can Leone survive Yolee's wrath to be with the he loves?"
