Elizabeth R. Andersen Books in Order

Recovering from a brutal flogging, Henri of Maron faces the consequences of his choices as a Mamluk attack approaches. Meanwhile, displaced Sidika searches for a new future through encounters whose significance she cannot yet understand.

In thirteenth-century Palestine, privileged Henri of Maron struggles with cruelty, prejudice, and divided loyalties. An encounter with a compassionate scribe challenges him to change as war draws his life toward those of a soldier and an orphan.

After Acre falls, captive Sidika seeks freedom in Egypt while soldier Emre risks court intrigue to increase his influence. Far away in Francia, Henri faces an arranged marriage and hostility as he dreams of finding her.

After surviving the Black Death, Gritta, Appel, and Efi begin brewing ale to support themselves in medieval Colmar. When officials dismiss a neighbor’s suspicious death, the three women investigate as more bodies threaten their fragile new livelihood.

Gravely injured and betrayed, Henri hides in a forest while powerful relatives hunt him. Sidika travels from Egypt to find him, and Emre follows in search of redemption, uncovering the dangerous secret of two coveted daggers.

A severed hand appears in Efi’s fresh ale, threatening the reputation of Colmar’s three alewives. With powerful men opposing them and more victims discovered, Gritta, Appel, and Efi must solve the mystery before suspicion destroys their brewery.

Missing novice monks and a terrified street sweeper fuel rumors of a supernatural predator outside Colmar. The alewives hope to avoid another investigation, until a body near their canal makes the danger impossible to ignore.
