Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

SEPULCHRE is a compulsive, fantastical, historical yarn. Mosse's skill lies in the precise nature of her storytelling (OBSERVER)

Ghosts, duels, murders, ill-fated love and conspiracy ... addictively readable (DAILY MAIL)

[Mosse is] a powerful storyteller with an abundant imagination (DAILY TELEGRAPH)

Brilliantly absorbing ... Richly evocative and full of compelling twists and turns (RED)

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 (INDEPENDENT)

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

Her narrative lyricism, beautifully drawn female characters and deft journey from the past to the present day, are also a cut above (SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY)

The LABYRINTH author is back with another brilliantly absorbing story ... Richly evocative and full of compelling twists and turns. (RED)

Reseña del editor:

A gripping tale of mystery and adventure from the No.1 bestselling author of LABYRINTH

1891. Seventeen-year-old Léonie Vernier and her brother abandon Paris for the sanctuary of their aunt's isolated country house near Carcassonne, the Domaine de la Cade. But Léonie stumbles across a ruined sepulchre - and a timeless mystery whose traces are written in blood.

2007. Meredith Martin arrives at the Domaine de la Cade to research a biography. But Meredith is also seeking the key to her own complex legacy and becomes immersed in the story of a tragic love, a missing girl, a unique deck of tarot cards and the strange events of one cataclysmic night a century ago...
