Another great book in the trilogy. voices in the Mist can be read separately. The introduction will enlighten any reader, no need to be a specialist about the period. Reading this book is like traveling through time and seing through the yes of the characters. Expect descriptions of any detail about everyday life and feelings as well. I can't wait to read more form Susanne Dunlap.

Voices in the Mist is the perfect culmination to a fantastic trilogy! Dunlap brings the otherwise forgotten history of the Cathars and the Albigensian Crusade during the 13th century to the modern reader with brilliantly crafted characters and a thoroughly engaging story. While this book is the third in the series the plot is actually a prequel. In this book we follow the life of Bruna. As a young girl, Bruna made a rash decision that subsequently snowballed into a life of lies and deceit. The choice she made to supposedly save herself impacted the lives and decisions of many. While the first two books focused on the Cather struggles to retain their culture and religion, this book highlights the crusade from the perspective of Catholic nobles. You will be mesmerized with the artistry Dunlap exhibits in recreating this world. There are layers upon layers of manipulation and deceit, dedication and loyalty, strength and determination, love and loss. Dunlap saved the best for last as this book is truly a tour-de-force.
I received a copy of this title via NetGalley

I have read Susanne Dunlap's novels before but never found one to equal Emilie's Voice, until now. True I have not read all of her novels, but I have read most of them. This is a truly emotional and touching story, and I was riveted by it. Not to mention the impressive amount of historical research that has gone into the novel, which concerns the Cathars, told through the eyes of a character who evolves as time passes, into an amazing woman. But I must not reveal more than this, for fear of spoilers. Let me merely say that this novel is highly recommended.
