A Sunday Times Best Paperbacks of the Year Pick

‘Mosse is a master storyteller’ – Madeline Miller, bestselling author of Circe

An epic historical adventure, sweeping from Carcassonne to Paris and Amsterdam, The City of Tears by Kate Mosse is the spellbinding second volume of The Joubert Family Chronicles.

May, 1572. For ten violent years, the Wars of Religion have raged across France. But when Minou Joubert and her family are invited to attend a historic royal wedding in Paris, it is a sign. Peace has been brokered – the marriage could see France reunited at last.

What Minou doesn’t know is that her family’s oldest enemy will also be in attendance, that the Jouberts will soon be scattered to the winds after tragedy strikes, and that a beloved child will disappear without trace . . .

A thrilling story of one family’s fight to survive against the devastating tides of history, The City of Tears is the second novel in the series. It is followed by The Ghost Ship.

'Religious fanaticism, political intrigue and the heart-wrenching tale of a lost child . . . with women firmly centre stage' – The Mail on Sunday

Ce que les critiques en disent

That rare thing, a novel with vast scope and ambition, brilliantly achieved, but also deeply personal, finely detailed and nuanced. I was utterly immersed in this spell-binding story (Rosamund Lupton, author of Three Hours)
A gorgeously written, utterly absorbing epic and, despite being set in the sixteenth century, has some very pertinent messages for our time about the evils of religious persecution and the transcendent power of love and family. In case it’s not clear enough yet, I absolutely LOVED it (Lucy Foley, author of The Hunting Party)
Magnificent, epic (Marian Keyes, author of Grown Ups)
The focus in her historical fiction has always been on the untold stories of women and Minou is an appealing heroine. Mosse includes all the ingredients you would expect from a historical epic – murder, treachery, lost children, stolen relics, buried secrets – but she also dramatises the complexities of 16th-century French and Dutch politics without weighing it down. This is a compelling story of how political upheavals play out in individual lives (Stephanie Merritt)
This powerful story of love, secrets and deceit is pacy, rich and stylish – and as compelling as they come. One to stay up late for (Isabel Ashdown, author of Lake Child)
