The best of the Brits ... Where Mosse really wins is in the writing department. She's the real role model there
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
Her narrative lyricism, beautifully drawn female characters and deft journey from the past to the present day, are also a cut above
SEPULCHRE is a compulsive, fantastical, historical yarn. Mosse's skill lies in the precise nature of her storytelling
The latest from the author of bestselling Labyrinth, this adventure will keep you engrossed
[Mosse is] a powerful storyteller with an abundant imagination
Ghosts, duels, murders, ill-fated love and conspiracy ... addictively readable
Brilliantly absorbing ... Richly evocative and full of compelling twists and turns
A sure, deft momentum . . . the secrets begin to slip out thick and fast
