Publisher Description
Christopher Rowe is back and there are more puzzles, riddles, and secrets to uncover in this third novel of the award-winning Blackthorn Key series.
Wherever Christopher Rowe goes, adventure—and murder—follows. Even a chance to meet King Charles ends in a brush with an assassin.
All that’s recovered from the killer is a coded message with an ominous sign-off: more attempts are coming. So when Christopher’s code-breaking discovers the attack’s true target, he and his friends are ordered to Paris to investigate a centuries-old curse on the French throne. And when they learn an ancient treasure is promised to any assassin who succeeds, they realize the entire royal family is at stake—as well as their own lives.
In the third heart-pounding installment of the award-winning Blackthorn Key series, Christopher, Tom, and Sally face new codes, puzzles, and traps as they race to find the hidden treasure before someone else is murdered.
Customer Reviews
SO GOOD. . . How Are They So Good? 😭
I thought the third would be sorta boring with Christopher, Tom and Sally leaving London and setting their adventure in Paris, but boy was I wrong! So much adventure. I love the parties and King Charles II is just so good! “Odd’s Fish,” that’s his line and it’s just so so good! I loved seeing how the characters developed, it showing how Christopher begins to feel self conscious and blushy around Sally; their moments together are so cute! P. S. The end. . . So good. . . I want to cry. Miracles! I love Lord Ashcombe, he’s one of my favorite characters! Simon Chastellain is so good as well! Marin Chastellain and the history with Master Benedict Blackthorn is so good. I hope you read this book cause you’d be missing out if you didn’t. Enjoy!
