Lost Acre

'Intricate and crisp witty and solemn' Hilary Mantel Man Booker Prize-winning author of Wolf Hall on Rotherweird

APOCALYPSE NOW?

Geryon Wynter the brilliant Elizabethan mystic has achieved resurrection and returned to present-day Rotherweird. But after the chaos of Election Day how can a stranger from another time wrest control? And for what fell purpose is Wynter back?

His dark conspiracy reaches its climax in this unique corner of England where the study of history is forbidden and neither friend nor foe are quite what they seem.

The stakes could not be higher for at the endgame not only Rotherweird is under threat. The future of mankind itself hangs in the balance.

'Baroque Byzantine and beautiful - not to mention bold. An enthralling puzzle picture of a book' M. R. Carey bestselling author of The Girl With All The Gifts on Rotherweird
