More about the book

Set during a pivotal moment in the 13th century, this book delves into the extensive inquisition of over five thousand individuals in Toulouse regarding the Cathar heresy. Conducted by Dominican inquisitors, the investigation included a diverse cross-section of society, from nobles to commoners, all questioned about their interactions with the heretics. The narrative explores the societal implications and the sheer scale of this unprecedented inquiry, marking it as the largest and fastest investigation of its kind in medieval Europe.
