Summary
The utterly compelling new novel from the bestselling author of Library of the Dead.
Abbey of Ruac, rural France: A medieval script is discovered hidden behind an antique bookcase. Badly damaged, it is sent to Paris for restoration, and there literary historian Hugo Pineau begins to read the startling fourteenth-century text. Within its pages lies a fanciful tale of a painted cave and the secrets it contains - and a rudimentary map showing its position close to the abbey.

Critics Review
Fast paced and original, Cooper delivers * The Sun *
Another massive hit from the thriller writer * No 1 Magazine *
Glenn Cooper’s outstanding style and tense, gripping storylines have done it again. As ever, I love the way he intertwines three different plots, from different periods in history, and produces a nail-bitingly exciting thriller that ends far too quickly but is impossible to read any slower. A truly wonderful book with a shocking and unexpected climax and an ending to make you smile and nod … a definite must-read for all fans of historical/religious crime fiction * Eurocrime.co.uk *
