Hugh De Luc, an innkeeper barely able to keep his inn from the nobles who rule France, joins the Crusades in an attempt to get out from under the royal boot. What he finds on the road to Jerusalem, however, is much worse than what he left, and he deserts--only to find that his old life has been destroyed in his absence.
I read Patterson books because I'm addicted to thrillers. So, when I first started listening to this story, I thought 'uh-oh' I'm really not into midieval history books. I'm glad I stuck with the story, and I became engrossed with the story. I could not stop listening! The narrator did such a great job, and I really felt transformed into that part of history. Highly recommended as a great story to read.
