Gisela, Charlemagne’s beloved younger sister, has a thirst for adventure and a love of the tales of Saints battling pagan witches. Too young to truly know wine, she is puzzled by her parent’s desire to remove all grapevines from Gaul save for the Eucharist sacrament of the Church and Pope. But when their little brother Pepin is ensnared by fairies in the massive grapevine of Saumur castle’s courtyard, she is forced to make a desperate choice.

In Sister to Charlemagne, she hides among the children of the rebellious Loire families, all prisoners being marched towards Prince Charles and Roland in the Breton March. As she embarks on this treacherous journey, Gisela must abandon her privileged life and cross cultural divides to make new allies.

What will this journey cost her to save Pepin’s enchanted vine? With the fate of red wine in the Loire Valley in her young hands, Gisela must fight to return them all to the royal court.
