The South of France is a land of religious and political passions. Anger extinguishes quickly, but hatred is long-lasting. After the fall of Napoleon, Catholics began to mistreat Protestants, whom the empire had patronized. The troubled situation led to the emergence of organizations that called themselves administrators of justice, but often acted like criminals. Among these was the Brotherhood of Black Sinners. Covering their faces with black hoods in the manner of the ancient order of monks who prayed for the souls of repentant sinners, the new champions of justice sowed fear and confusion in the hearts of the inhabitants of Provence. What are their real goals, who is their leader - on this account went a lot of rumors and suspicions, but the exact answer was not. The next volume of "Masters of Adventure" includes a novel by Ponson du Terrail "Captain Black Sinners". Using real facts, the writer, whose childhood was not far from the described places, sets out his version of events that stirred up the whole of Provence during the reign of King Louis-Philippe I.
