SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE - "A taut page-turner with all the hallmarks of a good historical thriller."--Orlando Sentinel

The gripping true story of the "duel to end all duels" in medieval France that pits a knight against a squire accused of violating the knight's beautiful young wife, soon to be a major motion picture.

In the midst of the devastating Hundred Years' War between France and England, Jean de Carrouges, a Norman knight fresh from combat in Scotland, finds his wife, Marguerite, accusing squire Jacques Le Gris of brutally raping her. A deadlocked court decrees a "trial by combat" that also leaves Marguerite's fate in the balance. For if her husband loses the duel, she will be put to death as a false accuser.

While enemy troops pillage the land, and rebellion and plague threaten the lives of all, Carrouges and Le Gris meet in full armor on a walled field in Paris. What follows is a fierce duel before a massive crowd that includes the teenage King Charles VI, during which both combatants are wounded--but only one fatally.

Based on extensive research in Normandy and Paris, The Last Duel brings to life a colorful, turbulent age and three unforgettable characters caught in a fatal triangle of crime, scandal, and revenge. The Last Duel is at once a moving human drama, a captivating detective story, and an engrossing work of historical intrigue with themes that echo powerfully centuries later.

Great for dermatitis and eczema
I love this light oil that absorbs probably into my skin. It makes my skin feel so soft. I use it after showers and when I am extra dry from the Desert heat, it has a fresh fragrance, and does wonders for my eczema and Crohn’s dermatitis. This is my third purchase, and I will continue to purchase this item.

Quality Body Oil
I love the ingredients in this and that it’s none comedogenic for my bacne. The spray bottle is not easy to apply since it’s messy so I put the contents into a glass pump bottle and leave the excess in the original bottle in the bathroom for my oil cleansing/make up removal or to spray on wet skin post shower. Wet skin stays a little oily so I tend to use a body powder but dry skin I can get away without it though it will leave a sheen (be careful with silk). It lasts me about 3 months and leaves my skin moisturized and soft

Not a spray; more like a stream
I purchased the body oil for my husband because he has eczema and needed something for moisture. I think I actually use it more than he does. The body oil comes in a spray bottle with a pump, but be prepared, it doesn't "spray" out of the nozzle. It's more like a stream. One good thing is that is doesn't run down your leg before you're able to wipe it around. The scent is not nice, but it does give you moisture. I had no irritation using it.

Really helps dry skin
Great product. I use after shower. After rubbing it in my skin it seems to soak in quickly so not greasy on clothes. I have not had the dry skin problems usually do in winter since using this product!
