The Joan of Arc Mysteries — Lionel Fanthorpe

There are challenging fragments of historical evidence to suggest that Joan of Arc did not die at the stake in Rouen on 30th May 1431. It has been hypothesised that a magnificent warrior, Robert des Armoises, ruler of Jaulny, could have rescued her, married her and shared a long, happy, adventurous life with her. This book starts from that premise and tells of their many adventures together. Escaping from Rouen, Robert and Joan hide in the ancient labyrinth below Paris. They become involved in the struggle to save the sacred treasures hidden at Rennes-le-Château and take them to safety to the far side of the Atlantic. Their adventures also include encountering the mysterious Spear of Destiny, and Robert's life-or-death struggle with a dangerous sea monster. They also become involved in solving the Riddle of the Sphinx and exploring the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
