Summary:
In 1891 a brother and sister Anatole and LeĢonie Vernier are invited to leave the gas-lit streets of Paris and travel south to a mysterious country house, La Domaine de la Cade. There, in the ancient, dark woods, Leonie comes across a ruined sepulchre and is drawn into a century's old mystery of murder, ghosts and a strange set of tarot cards that seem to hold enormous power over life and death. In 2007 Meredith Martin decides to take a break from her research trip in Paris and head down south to a beautiful hotel in the woods. She becomes fascinated by the history of the place and there her fate becomes entwined with that of Leonie.
