DAILY MIRROR
The best of the Brits ... Where Mosse really wins is in the writing department. She's the real role model there

SEPULCHRE is a compulsive, fantastical, historical yarn. Mosse's skill lies in the precise nature of her storytelling
SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY
Her narrative lyricism, beautifully drawn female characters and deft journey from the past to the present day, are also a cut above
INDEPENDENT
Mosse's gifts for historical fiction are considerable ... Mosse does what good popular historical novelists do best - make the past enticingly otherworldly, while also claiming it as our own
DAILY MAIL
Ghosts, duels, murders, ill-fated love and conspiracy ... addictively readable

The latest from the author of bestselling Labyrinth, this adventure will keep you engrossed

A sure, deft momentum . . . the secrets begin to slip out thick and fast
