Regentin, Rebellin, Heilige: wer war Elisabeth von Thüringen wirklich? Sabine Weigands erfolgreicher Roman um die berühmteste Frau des deutschen Mittelalters. Seit ihrer Kindheit ist die junge Adlige Gisa die Vertraute von Elisabeth, der Landgräfin von Thüringen. Sie weiß, wie zerrissen Elisabeth ist zwischen ihrer Liebe zum machtbewussten Landgrafen Ludwig und ihrer Suche nach einem gottgefälligen, einfachen Leben. Gisa erlebt, wie Elisabeth gegen den Hof aufbegehrt, welche Unruhe ihre Spenden, ihre Fürsorge für die Armen auslöst. Sie sieht auch, wie der jüngere Bruder des Landgrafen mit unzufriedenen Adligen paktiert und sie gegen den Stauferkaiser Friedrich II. aufbringen will. Gisas drückendstes Geheimnis dreht sich um die verbotenen Treffen einer Ketzersekte, die sie belauscht hat. Als Elisabeth 1226 dem fanatischen Inquisitor Konrad von Marburg begegnet und ihr Leben radikal strengsten Glaubensregeln unterwirft, gerät Gisas Welt völlig aus den Fugen. Wie weit kann sie Elisabeth zur Seite stehen, ohne selbst unterzugehen?
