The Secret of the Château by Kathleen McGurl
Everything
is about to change…
1789. Pierre
and Catherine Aubert, the Comte and Comtesse de Verais, have fled the
palace of Versailles for their château, deep in the French Alps. But
as revolution spreads through the country, even hidden away the
Auberts will not be safe forever. Soon they must make a terrible
decision in order to protect themselves, and their children, from
harm.
Present
day. When Lu’s mother
dies leaving her heartbroken, the chance to move to a château in the
south of France with her husband and best friends seems an
opportunity for a new beginning. But Lu can’t resist digging into
their new home’s history, and when she stumbles across the
unexplained disappearance of Catherine Aubert, the château begins to
reveal its secrets – and a mystery unsolved for centuries is
uncovered…
Kathleen
McGurl lives in Bournemouth with her husband. She has two sons who
have both now left home. She always wanted to write, and for many
years was waiting until she had the time. Eventually she came to the
bitter realisation that no one would pay her for a year off work to
write a book, so she sat down and started to write one anyway. Since
then she has published several novels with HQ and self-published
another. She has also sold dozens of short stories to women's
magazines, and written three How To books for writers. After a long
career in the IT industry she became a full time writer in 2019. When
she's not writing, she's often out running, slowly.
