The Back of the Book

Set in seventeeth-century France against a backdrop of witch trials,
regicide and religious frenzy, this is the story of Juliette, one-time
actress and rope-dancer.

Forced by circumstance to seek refuge with Fleur, her young daughter,
in the remote abbey of Saint Marie-de-la-Mer, Juliette reinvents
herself as Soeur Auguste under the tutelage of the kindly Abbess. But
times are changing: the murder of Henri IV becomes the catalyst for
massive upheaval in France.

A new appointment is made, and Juliette's new life begins to unravel.
For the new Abbess is Isabelle, the eleven-year-old child of a corrupt
and noble family. Worse, Isabelle has brought with her a ghost from
Juliette's past, masquerading as a cleric, a man she has every reason
to fear.

'Hugely enjoyable' Amanda Criag, New Statesman
