About this episode
Kate Mosse is the multimillion-selling author of the Languedoc Trilogy - Labyrinth , Sepulchre and Citadel . With her new novel The City of Tears , the second in her series The Burning Chambers , just out in paperback, she tells the story of a family’s fight to stay together and survive against the backdrop of the French Wars of Religion and the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre of 1572. In this edition of Not Just the Tudors , Professor Suzannah Lipscomb talks to Kate Mosse about how she goes about writing historical fiction, researching the events of the past, imagining the characters who lived through them and, most particularly, conjuring up the places she finds inspiring - but as they used to be.
