Series
Languedoc Trilogy
Kate Mosse · 3 novels · 2005–2012
Kate Mosse's Languedoc Trilogy opens with Labyrinth, alternating between a present-day archaeologist in southern France and a woman living through the Cathar crusades eight centuries earlier, both entangled with the same hidden, grail-like relic. Sepulchre and Citadel repeat the dual-timeline structure with different centuries and protagonists, all tied to the same Languedoc region. The books share setting and structural device rather than a continuous cast.
