Romance, mystery, and intrigue populate the first-ever teen series from #1 bestselling author of The Other Boleyn Girl. The year is 1492. Eighteen-year-old Luca De Vere is brilliant, gorgeous?and a heretic. Cast out of his religious order for using scientific knowledge to prove that a divine revelation was faked, Luca is recruited into a secret sect: The Order of the Dragon, headed by none other than Pope Nicholas V, investigates strange occurrences across Europe, and Luca is now part of the Order. Â Â Â Â Isolde is a seventeen-year-old girl who"s been shut up in a nunnery so she can"t inherit any of her deceased father"s estate. Because of mysterious happenings at the nunnery, Isolde is accused of witchcraft?and Luca is sent to investigate her. Â Â Â Â Despite the conventions of their time, an attraction grows between Luca and Isolde, and, traveling across Europe, they encounter alchemists, poisoners, inquisitors, and purported witches as they head toward a real-life historical figure who may hold the power of the Order of the Dragon. Â Â Â Â The first in a series, this epic and richly detailed drama is firmly rooted in historical fact, and Philippa Gregory"s trademark touch deftly brings the past?and its salacious scandals?to life.
