An ancient castle, a tragic love, and a web of secrets.... When her fascinating but unreliable cousin Harry invites her on a holiday to explore the legendary own of Chinon, France, and promptly disappears, Emily begins to uncover dark secrets beneath the charm. As the dangers of the past become disastrously real, she is drawn ever more deeply into a labyrinth of mystery as twisted as the streets and tunnels of the ancient town itself.
