Showing results by narrator "Kate Mosse"

Kate Mosse, international best-selling author of the Languedoc Trilogy and The Taxidermist’s Daughter, as well as cofounder and chair of the Women’s Prize for Fiction, brings us the first instalment of her new and highly anticipated series, The Burning Chambers, set in 16th-century Languedoc. In it, religious wars begin to take hold as a young Catholic girl and a Huguenot believer find themselves in possession of a priceless treasure. 

A wonderfully atmospheric collection of stories from one of our most captivating writers, inspired by ghost stories, traditional folk tales and country legends from England and France. These tales are richly populated by spirits and ghosts seeking revenge; by grief-stricken women and haunted men coming to terms with their destiny - all rooted deep in the elemental landscapes of Sussex, Brittany and the Languedoc.
