"Noémi" by S. Baring-Gould is a historical novel published in 1895. Set in fifteenth-century Aquitaine during English occupation, the story follows a countryside terrorized by Le Gros Guillem, a feared freebooter who raids from his stronghold at Domme. When desperate peasants rally under local leader Ogier del' Peyra to fight back, Guillem's daughter Noémi—a spirited beauty turned bandit—must choose between her father's violent world and her love for Ogier's son. The tale blends thrilling action with romance against the backdrop of a brutal historical period.
