A Trap for Catherine — Juliette Benzoni

With her castle under siege from a band of brigands, Catherine is forced to set off on horseback in pursuit of one of their number, a vicious youth who carries at his saddle-bow a trophy of a severed head, and who has but one mission: to humiliate and kill her beloved Arnaud, Lord of Montsalvy.Following a trail of blood and devastation through the French countryside, Catherine eventually reaches the war-ravaged capital, Paris, where fresh troubles await her. And still greater shocks lie in store as the beautiful noblewoman resolutely strives to achieve her longed-for reunion with her jealous, violent husband.A Trap for Catherine is the sixth book in Juliette Benzoni's classic series of historical romances – back in print in the English language for the first time in decades.
