Publisher's summary

There is a secret hidden within a body, burning within the flames, that will change history forever.

2014: in the French city of Orléans, a man’s charred corpse is found in a burned-out hotel, stripped of all ID. Police captain Inès Picaut must hunt down his killer before others fall prey to the fire. She has only one clue: the name of a woman who has been dead for over 500 years.

1429: Joan of Arc is taking the war to the English. They want her dead but the only way to reach her is through a fiercely loyal inner circle - until undercover spy Tomas Rustbeard finally earns her trust....

The myths of the past hold the key to the mystery of the present, but how many must die before the truth is laid bare?

Is that language really necessary?

This was an engaging story with interesting albeit wildly outrageous historical revisionism mixed in. What blew my mind was the complete inability of the author to express excitement, frustration, anger, enthusiasm, or any other emotion without F-bombs and every other profanity and explicative she could come up with. I know that some people talk that way, but I also know that most don't. I also know that it is totally unnecessary for the purpose of effective and intelligent communication.

Throw in the violence and adultery and you have a solid Rated R book. Be sure not to listen within hearing of children or anyone else with sensitivities. I share my library with my family and I'll be deleting this book because of the offensive language.

Audible: Still waiting for a rating system so that I and others with standards can avoid the inappropriate books.

Page turner

Interesting back-and-forth between the present and the future. Both excellent stories. Narration was superb.

Wow.

Amazing book and performance. Listened to it at one sitting. Re-kindled my interest in Jeanne D’Arc as well

Chapter 17 or so and so bored

I'm not finished but yikes. It bounces back and forth between current times and the 1400s. It could have been interesting but not so far.

The 1400s are over-acted, angry, violent and creepy.
Current? Honestly, can't say because it's so forgettable.
Actually, the guy reading the 1400s turns my stomach. Not going to torture myself anymore.
