The Witch of Cologne

A Time of Peril �The Inquisitor, Carlos Vicente Solitario, charges a young Jewish midwife, Ruth bas Elazar Saul, with heresy.� Ruth may be the daughter of the city's chief rabbi, but this is no protection against the Inquisition's accusations.� �A Quest for Justice�Detlef von Tennen, nobleman and canon, cousin to the Archbishop, suspects that something other than religion drives Solitario to persecute Ruth.� Determined to ensure that justice is done, Detlef joins the investigation--and finds his passions fully aroused by Ruth's impressive intelligence and darkly exotic beauty.� �Two Hearts' Desires�All her life, Ruth bas Elazar Saul has thirsted for knowledge, despite the price she paid by concealing her gender and being cast out of her father's house.� Her faith sustains her through all, even the attentions of the Inquisition.� Then, in the very heart of danger, God blesses her with the greatest love she has ever known.�
