i feel like a lot of people will compare this book to Da Vinci’s Code, but it’s definitely higher quality. To be honest, I think it was way better than some of Dan Brown’s stuff(please don’t kill me, I’m also a fan) But this is a well-researched story, set in both contemporary and 13th-century France (Carcassonne) featuring two intense heroines. While I was reading this book, I just kept thinking, Dan Brown must be so proud of this. Alice later discovers that she is Alais’ descendant. The book contains the secrets to the Holy Grail. Although she cannot understand the symbols and diagrams the books contain, Alais knows her destiny lies in protecting their secret, at all costs. Eight hundred years ago, on the night before a brutal civil war ripped apart Languedoc, three books were entrusted to Alais, a young herbalist and healer, the daughter of the steward of Carcassona. Alice has an uneasy feeling that she has disturbed something which was meant to remain hidden, she finds a connection between her nightmares she had been having since childhood and discovers that the cave was related to her past. Puzzled by the words carved inside the chamber and the representation of a labyrinth, she found an exact representation of it on the underside of the ring she found in the cave. But it’s not just the sight of the shattered bones that makes her uneasy there’s an overwhelming sense of evil in the tomb that Alice finds hard to shake off, even in the bright French sunshine. Summary: Dr Alice Tanner, who works as a volunteer at the archaeological site of Pic de Soularac in France, discovers two skeletons in a long-hidden cave in the hillside, she unearths a link with an horrific and brutal past.
