*Les Dames de Lusignan* explores the lives of women connected to the Lusignan lineage during the medieval centuries of western France. Drawing on the atmosphere of dynastic power, inheritance, marriage, faith, and political ambition, the novel presents the Lusignan world as both a family history and a setting shaped by legend and uncertainty. Across the period suggested by the subtitle, from the tenth through the thirteenth century, the narrative follows noblewomen whose choices are constrained by lineage but whose actions help define the future of their house. Chiché-Aubrun combines historical atmosphere with mystery, emphasizing the tensions between private lives and public destiny in a society ruled by castles, alliances, and reputation.
