About The Book

1979: Charles Meredith, a brilliant Oxford professor, clashes with a beautiful French woman in Balliol's library. When the woman disappears, and her identity is exposed as a sham, Charles is dragged into a terrifying pursuit.

1873: G枚d枚ll枚, Hungary. Lukas Bal谩zs prepares for his v茅gzet night, the celebration that symbolises his entry into adulthood. But the festivities are about to go horribly wrong, and only Lukas knows why.

A centuries-old secret is about to unravel ... Jakab is coming.
