'Brilliant . . . The past is felt deep in the reader's bones' – The Observer
A sweeping story of love, adventure and adversity, The Map of Bones by Kate Mosse is an epic tale of courageous women battling to survive in a hostile land.
No word, no story, no grave . . .
Olifantshoek, Southern Africa, 1688.
Suzanne Joubert, a Huguenot refugee from war-torn France, journeys to the Cape of Good Hope in search of her notorious cousin, Louise Reydon-Joubert, who vanished without trace half a century ago.
Franschhoek, Southern Africa, 1862.
Nearly six generations later, Isabelle Joubert Lepard follows in her footsteps, determined to investigate the lives of her ancestors – and to honour their memory – only to discover that the evils of the past, though hidden, are far from buried.
And that her life, too, is under threat . . .
Painstakingly researched and beautifully told, The Map of Bones is the triumphant conclusion to Kate Mosse's number one international bestselling Joubert Family Chronicles, following the bestselling The Burning Chambers, The City of Tears and The Ghost Ship.
'This is adventure-stuffed historical fiction in the grand tradition' – The Telegraph
