Synopsis

As an avocation, for over twenty years, the author has researched the role of women in the Early Church and the scandal of their subordination in the rise of Christianity. This resulted in his first work entitled The Priestess and the Pope.Madeleine's Inquisition, a sequel, bolsters the already persuasive case of the leadership role of women and sets forth the injustice, superstition and inhumanity of the Church towards women. As a decorated combat veteran, the author felt compelled to deal with the horrors and the aftermath of war in an era plagued by constant wars. Poverty stricken and alone, Madeleine Moreau awaits the return of her husband, a sergeant in the Grande Armee, while struggling to provide for herself and her children — her future bleak, foreboding and empty. She draws strength in her darkest hour when the Monsignor of Paris charges her with witchcraft and threatens to tear her family apart.The novel follows the lives of Madeleine Moreau and her antagonist, the Monsignor of Paris... Marc Moreau and his retreat from Russia following Napoleon's defeat... Madame Leblanc and her disavowal of aristocracy for the cause of Liberty... Michel Bois, a popular French sculptor, who forsakes Madeleine for the salvation of France... and two young priests, whose lives are changed by the chronicles of witchcraft, the vestiges of the Inquisition and the inhumane treatment of women by the Church — bringing them to a moral crossroads where each must choose his or her own destiny. These characters find their lives inextricably entangled as they uncover the bigotry of the Church, face religious prosecution and experience the horrors of war — while affected by the enlightened philosophers of the times.
