Delacroix Chronicles

Book Cover "Avignon The Long Road Home" Sword has Wolf and Lilies.

A history project. A foggy morning. A slip that changes everything.

Waking in a medieval abbey with nothing but his backpack and a research notebook, Stephen must navigate a world he knows only from books. Guided by a wise monk, he learns to survive in an era on the brink of upheaval — but survival grows complicated when he becomes entangled with the Knights Templar and finds himself hunted by both king and pope.

Stephen Delacroix is a typical high school senior in 1986 New Haven — until a Renaissance fair photo op sends him tumbling into 14th-century France.

With unlikely allies at his side and dangerous secrets in his head, Stephen walks a razor’s edge between revealing too much of the future and making it home alive. Every choice could mean death, discovery — or something he never expected to find in the past: love.

The road home has never been so treacherous.
