'Mosse is a master storyteller' - Madeleine Miller, bestselling author of CirceA sweeping story of love, adventure and adversity, The Map of Bones by Kate Mosse is an epic tale of courageous women battling to survive in a hostile land. Olifantshoek, Southern Africa, 1688. When the violent Cape wind blows from the south-east, they say the voices of the unquiet dead can be heard whispering through the deserted valley.
Suzanne Joubert, a Huguenot refugee from war-torn France, arrives in search of her cousin - the notorious she-captain and pirate commander Louise Reydon-Joubert - who landed at the Cape of Good Hope more than sixty years before, then disappeared without a trace .
