This is a gripping and breath-taking novel of revenge, persecution and loss with boundless action which sweeps from Paris and Chartres to the City of tears itself in Amsterdam.
I am a sucker for a historical fiction novel and this one gripped me totally from page one until i turned the pages till the last. This is a story of perseverance and how the characters are able to forge a path from them to survive. This is them coupled with their fear for the families with missing members. This could also be a standalone however as part of the story of several books which helps with the development of the storyline and the world which the story is taken place in. I have to take my hat of to Kate Mosses and how she has developed the characters and left this as a cliff hanger ready for the next book.
