Neighbours have become enemies, countless lives have been lost and the country has been torn apart over matters of religion, citizenship and sovereignty. But now a precarious peace is in the balance - a royal wedding has been negotiated by Catherine de’ Medici and Jeanne d'Albret, an alliance between the Catholic Crown and Henri, the Huguenot king of Navarre. It is a marriage that could see France reunited at last.

Meanwhile in Puivert, an invitation has arrived for Minou Joubert and her family to attend this historic wedding in Paris in August.
