When Dr Alice Tanner discovers
two skeletons during an archaeological dig in southern
France, she unearths a link with a horrific and brutal past.
But it's not just the sight of the shattered bones that
makes her uneasy; there's an overwhelming sense of evil in
the tomb that Alice finds hard to shake off, even in the
bright French sunshine. Puzzled by the words carved inside
the chamber, Alice has an uneasy feeling that she has
disturbed something which was meant to remain hidden...
Eight hundred years ago, on the night before a brutal civil
war ripped apart Languedoc, a book was entrusted to Alais, a
young herbalist and healer. Although she cannot understand
the symbols and diagrams the book contains, Alais knows her
destiny lies in protecting their secret, at all costs.
Skilfully blending the lives of two women divided by
centuries but united by a common destiny, LABYRINTH is a
powerful story steeped in the atmosphere and history of
southern France.
