Sepulchre by Mosse Kate
From the New York Times bestselling author of Labyrinth-a rich brew of supernaturalism and intrigue.(Kirkus Reviews) In 1891, young L onie Vernier and her brother arrive at the home of their widowed aunt in Rennes-le-Bains, in southwest France. But nothing is as L onie had imagined. Their aunt is young, willowy, and beautiful, and the estate is a subject of local superstition. Villagers claim that L onie's late uncle died after summoning a demon from the old Visigoth sepulchre on its grounds. More than a century later, Meredith Martin, an American graduate student, arrives in Rennes-le- Bains while researching the life of Claude Debussy. Haunted by a Tarot reading she had in Paris-and possessing the mysterious deck of cards-she checks into a grand old hotel built on the site of a famous mountain estate destroyed by fire in 1896. There, the pack of Tarot cards and a piece of 19th-century music known as Sepulchre 1891 hold the key to her fate-just as they did to the fate of L onie Vernier.Kate Mosse is an international bestselling author with sales of more than five million copies in 38 languages.
