Beschreibung
In Strasbourg, in the boiling hot summer of 1518, a plague strikes the women of the city. First it is just one - a lone figure, dancing in the town square - but she is joined by more and more and the city authorities declare an emergency. Musicians will be brought in. The devil will be danced out of these women. A transporting story of lust, family secrets and women under the eye of the Church. The gripping new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of "The Mercies".
