Okzitanien im 13. Jahrhundert. Der zehn Jahre alte Olivier erlebt zusammen mit seiner Familie den Ausbruch des Kreuzzuges gegen die Katharer.

Olivier wächst fortan bei seinem Stiefvater und seinem Onkel, einem berühmten Katharer, im Exil auf. Nach seiner Ausbildung zum Ritter am Hofe von Barcelona und seinem ersten Abenteuer als Beschützer von geheimen katharischen Schriften wird Olivier zum rebellischen Freiheitskämpfer. Er lernt auf vielfältige Weise die Liebe kennen.

Denn König Ludwig IX. von Frankreich zieht in den Kampf für das Heilige Land. Die Kreuzritter erdulden unsägliche Strapazen und Leid und Olivier gewinnt das Vertrauen des Königs. Doch er verliert das seines Sohnes und seiner Landsleute, mit denen er einst für die Freiheit ihres Glaubens und Landes gekämpft hatte.
