Publisher's Summary

In the year 1629, a young English lutenist named Peter Claire arrives at the Danish Court to join King Christian IV's Royal Orchestra. From the moment when he realizes that the musicians perform in a freezing cellar underneath the royal apartments, Peter Clair understands that he's come to a place where the opposing states of light and dark, good and evil, are waging war to the death.

Astonishingly powerful story!

I loved the story, her incredible command of words, descriptions, metaphors, philosophy of life and insight into human nature is something that I have not seen in any other writer! I was tormented and at the edge of my seat during the last hour of this story! A book not to be missed!
