Guise of the Queen

Om Guise of the Queen

A tale of Huguenot persecution from Paris to La Rochelle. Paris, 1572. Catherine de Médicis, the Queen Mother, urges her feckless son King Charles to act against the hated Huguenots. She instructs her Duke de Guise to carry out a bloody massacre on Saint Bartholomew's Day. Hundreds die, and fear spreads throughout the kingdom. Many Parisians flee, facing an uncertain future. But Catherine is not satisfied; she yearns to take La Rochelle, a prosperous port and the last Huguenot stronghold. The degenerate Satanist, Judge Boivin, rules over La Rochelle and is not one to surrender easily, but the odds are stacked heavily against him. Soon, their forces will clash in a bloody war, and the future of La Rochelle - and the Huguenots - will be decided once and for all.
