From the New York Times and number one internationally best-selling author of Labyrinth,comes the first in an epic new series.
Power and prejudice: France, 1562. War sparks between the Catholics and Huguenots, dividing neighbors, friends, and family - meanwhile, 19-year-old Minou Joubert receives an anonymous letter at her father’s bookshop. Sealed with a distinctive family crest, it contains just five words: She knows that you live.
Love and betrayal: Before Minou can decipher the mysterious message, she meets a young Huguenot convert, Piet Reydon. Piet has a dangerous task of his own, and he will need Minou’s help if he is to stay alive. Soon, they find themselves on opposing sides as forces beyond their control threaten to tear them apart.
Honor and treachery: As the religious divide deepens, Minou and Piet find themselves trapped in Toulouse, facing new dangers as tensions ignite across the city - and a feud that will burn across generations begins to blaze....
Praise for The Burning Chambers:
"Mosse is a master storyteller, balancing thrilling suspense with complex characters." (Madeline Miller, number one New York Times best-selling author of Circe)
"This is historical fiction to devour. Nobody does it like Kate Mosse." (Anthony Horowitz, New York Times best-selling author of The Magpie Murders)
©2019 Kate Mosse (P)2019 Macmillan Digital Audio批評家のレビュー
"Oh, what a glorious novel. A masterly tour of history; a rapturous romance; and - best of all - a breathless thriller, alive with treachery, danger, atmosphere, and beauty. This book will transport you. Kate Mosse is that rarest of writers: a storyteller who breathes fresh life into vanished worlds." (A.J. Finn, author of The Woman in the Widow)
""Narrator Hattie Morahan brings nimble modulation to the proceedings, imbuing clear distinction between characters without going to extremes while also making remarkably precise (and helpful) shifts between the characters’ various French, Langue d’Oc and Dutch accents. That she nails the novel’s singing, chanting and action scenes - not to mention a particular character’s final mad monologue - is just icing on the audiobook cake. Better still, while technically intended as the first in an eventual series, The Burning Chambers nevertheless satisfies as a standalone listen." (Paste Magazine)
"Mosse is a master storyteller, balancing thrilling suspense with complex characters and a thoughtful exploration of a fascinating time in history. Her heroine Minou is a pleasure to root for: clever, loving, down-to-earth and courageous!" (Madeline Miller, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Circe)
