À propos de cet audio

 From the international bestselling author of Fatherland and Munich, a gripping mystery and a fascinating cautionary tale.

"All civilizations consider themselves invulnerable; history warns us that none is."

1468. A young priest, Christopher Fairfax, arrives in a remote English village to conduct the funeral of his predecessor. The land around is strewn with ancient artefacts—coins, fragments of glass, human bones—which the old parson used to collect. Did his obsession with the past lead to his death?

As Fairfax is drawn more deeply into the isolated community, everything he believes—about himself, his faith and the history of his world—is tested to destruction.

a gripping start and excellent storytelling created a promising situation and interesting characters. .but ultimately the plot was disappointing and left unresolved

a clever idea wasted

The narrator really did a great job. The book was referred to me because of all that is going on in the world its a bit relatable with Covid going around. It is based in the future after an Apocolypse . I dont usually go for this type of story but I did really enjoy it 👌

well read
