In Burgundy, France, in 1926, a famed archaeologist dies a terrible death in a country not his own.*…*Thus begins CWA Historical Dagger Award winner Barbara Cleverly’s dazzling new mystery novel.

It is an explosive revelation that could rock modern Christianity—and force a killer out of the shadows as a country devastated by one war lays the groundwork for another.…
