International best-selling author Kate Mosse will return to Nantwich next month for the launch of her new novel “The Map of Bones”, writes Jonathan White.

The event, organised by Nantwich Bookshop, will take place at Malbank School on Tuesday November 5. Doors open at 6pm for a 6.30pm start.

“The Map of Bones” is the fourth and final instalment in Mosse’s Joubert Family Chronicles series – preceded by the bestselling The Burning Chambers, The City of Tears and The Ghost Ship.

It marks the conclusion of a sweeping historical saga that has captivated readers worldwide.

Set against the backdrop of 17th and 19th-century southern Africa, “The Map of Bones” masterfully weaves together stories of injustice, hardship, and triumph.

Nantwich Bookshop & Coffee Lounge staff member Kathryn Rush will interview Kate to talk about her previous novels, her life, the new book and there will be a book signing at the end.
