Beschreibung
'At least that post-Reformation sovereignty of the word still yields novels as richly imagined and skilfully crafted as this' The Spectator Longlisted for the 2025 Walter Scott Prize for Historical Fiction Longlisted in the 2024 HWA Crown Awards ANNO DOMINI 1546. In a manor house in England a young woman feels the walls are closing around her, while her dying husband is obsessed by his vision of a chapel where prayers will be said for his immortal soul. As the days go by and the chapel takes shape, the outside world starts to intrude. But as the old ways are replaced by the new, the people of the village sense a dangerous freedom. Reader Reviews 'A must read. Characters that one cares about, beautifully structured, a real page turner' 'A jewel of a book' 'Beautifully written' 'Atmospheric and compelling'
