About this listen
As the beautiful Provence summer turns to autumn, Eve finds it impossible to ignore the mysteries that haunt both her lover and the run-down old house, in particular the mysterious disappearance of his beautiful first wife, Rachel.
Whilst Eve tries to untangle the secrets surrounding Rachel's last recorded days, Les Genevriers itself seems to come alive. As strange events begin to occur with frightening regularity, Eve's voice becomes intertwined with that of Benedicte Lincel, a girl who lived in the house decades before.
As the tangled skeins of the house's history begin to unravel, the tension grows between Dom and Eve. In a page-turning race, Eve must fight to discover the fates of both Benedicte and Rachel, before Les Genevriers' dark history has a chance to repeat itself.

Critic Reviews
A modern day Rebecca, complete with an eerie house ... and nail-biting happenings
Time-slip novels are tricky to get right and this one nails it (Amanda Ross)
Deborah Lawrenson's new novel, a modern Gothic tale set in the lavender-scented landscape of Provence, serves up an escapist mix of mystery, romance and murder
This is a beautiful story with exquisitely dark undertones
A perfect summer read - a perfect read for any time you want to be wrapped up in a great story - I recommend The Lantern unreservedly
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Luberon region, The Lantern is a beautifully written story of mystery and love in France
