Synopsis
It is 1385 and master mason Simon of Kineton is building his magnum opus—a great college to rival any in England. But the Bishop of Salter, hostile to free education, is determined to sabotage Simon's project. When rumors spread that the mason's son is cursed, the bishop sees an opportunity to undermine both Simon and the college. 600 years later, in the same city, Damia Miller has been employed to promote penniless Kineton and Dacre college. She soon realizes that a grotesque wall painting uncovered during renovations may hold the key to the ancient college's survival. A startling feat of imaginative skill, this debut novel is a heartbreaking reminder of what it is that makes us human—no matter what era we are born into.
