Ahead of its 20th anniversary early next year, the author Kate Mosse talks to Harriett Gilbert and readers from around the world, about her globally bestselling novel, Labyrinth. It’s a historical thriller set between medieval and contemporary France where the lives of two women, living centuries apart, are linked in a common destiny. In 13th century Carcassonne, seventeen-year-old Alaïs is given a mysterious book by her father which he claims contains the secret of the Grail. While 700 years later, archaeologist Dr Alice Tanner discovers two skeletons in a forgotten cave in the French Pyrenees and sets out to investigate their origin.

Hello, this is the BBC World Service.
I'm Harriet Gilbert.
Welcome to World Book Club, the program where you get to ask top authors questions about their work this month.
The book we've been reading is a double thriller called Labyrinth.
Its intertwined stories are both set in France, but one takes place more or less now and opens with a puzzling discovery during an archaeological dig.
The other is a 13th century drama of religious violence and a sacred mystery.
What connects them?
