A delightful story at many levels. It is a compelling personal drama that unfolds in contemporary France, as well as historical fiction grounded in fascinating and tragic events from 13th century France. The story is written with compassion and feeling, and is one the reader will long ponder and remember. - Rex Beach, author of
Shockproof ... Six Essentials for Success
"The Cathar Legacy" is a sequel to "Past Recall".
Both books are based on the true story of how an entire culture - the Cathars - was destroyed because of their enlightened beliefs, and the secrets they held. The records of the Inquisition describe a Cathar treasure that was ... "so powerful as to transform the world".
But when the "believers" were being burned at the stake, it was discovered that four of their members escaped with the treasure before the massacre.
Past Recall moves back and forth in time between the 13th century and modern day France as two unlikely people are brought together to rediscover the treasure and the forces that still want to use its power for their own dark mission.
The Cathar Legacy reveals how the secrets of the treasure hold the potential to redeem and inspire our world at a time when enlightenment must once again triumph over darkness. It also provides a glimpse of what awaits us when we succeed.
