I was reading along in this time travel novel and realized I was confused as to the characters in the 1570's part. So I went back to the beginning and reread the first 189 pages, before finishing the book. I am very glad I did! The second run-through made much more sense, as I wrote down the family tree for the characters and I understood who was related to whom, and why. The delving in to the Catholic persecution of Protestants in the hundred or so years prior to the Massacre of St Bartholomew (1685) was very interesting, as well as the modern difficulties of a non-French person trying to fit in in a small French village near Toulouse.
