Andrea Japp uses her remarkable knowledge of French history to tell an intricate and spellbinding story of a battle between church and state.
'An excellent read' Historical Novels Review
1304. The Church and the French Crown are locked in a power struggle. In the Normandy countryside, monks on a secret mission are brutally murdered and a poisoner is at large at Clairets Abbey. Young noblewoman Agn鑚 de Souarcy fights to retain her independence but must face the Inquisition, unaware that she is the focus of an ancient quest.
Andrea Japp is one of the grandes dames of French crime writing with over thirty novels published. She is a forensic scientist by profession and weaves this knowledge into her books, giving them particular authenticity.
Lorenza Garcia translates from French and Spanish. Her two most recent translations are The Montmartre Investigation by Claude Izner, which she co-translated with Isabel Reid, and The Season of the Beast by Andrea H. Japp. She currently lives in London.
