Black created a wondrously fascinating world, here. It's a fast-paced story, rich in description. But I felt emotionally detached from the characters; the romance, friendships, and betrayals all fell flat on me.

As I've come to expect from Mosse, a slow start to this book was worth persevering with. Once the story was established it was enjoyable, if not slightly rushed at the end. The Cathar history is rich and intriguing, an educational, yet touching novel.

Fabulously rich tale about success and loss
This was an unexpected treasure I came across. The language is rich and the story is heartfelt over whether success is truly a positive. The characters of Odelle, Olive and Theresa are wonderfully full and vibrant, and the end tales of the latter are both shocking and moving. One of the most immersive books I've read this year, and Cathy Tyson does a great job in bringing the characters to life.
