"The Heretic is a multi-generational adventure set against the politics and passions of the most powerful woman in 15th century Europe." "Gabriel Catalan's Jewish father was forcibly converted, so Gabriel is a Christian. Secretly, and against the wishes of his wife Pilar, he is faithful to the God of Israel.".
"Gabriel meets Johann Gutenberg, and he and his son Tomas become the first printers of Hebrew books. As Gabriel's wealth and influence grow he becomes a royal financier and confidant. Ultimately, he makes the fateful decision to help Princess Isabel achieve the throne of Spain." "Gabriel's adversary is Friar Ricardo Perez - a fanatical Dominican monk crazed by the threat of Jewish heretics. Perez employs torture and foments anti-Jewish riots in his efforts to expose Gabriel Catalan's secret Judaism.".
"The Heretic is propelled to its dramatic climax when Friar Perez demands an Inquisition to uncover Jewish heretics, Gabriel Catalan desperately opposes his plan, and Queen Isabel is forced to decide."--BOOK JACKET.
