Her books include the multimillion-selling Languedoc trilogy which begins with the unmissable Labyrinth, and the bestselling more recent series, The Joubert Family Chronicles. The final book in that series, The Map of Bones, was published on 10 Oct by Mantle (Pan Macmillan) and is available as a hardback, ebook and audio recording. Kate’s live one-woman stage show, Labyrinth, will be on tour in 2025.

She tells us how it felt when Labyrinth became such a smash hit, and how she never plans her novels, but instead spends years researching the history of the stories she wants to tell.</p><p><br></p><p>Links:</p><p><a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/Map-Bones-Triumphant-Historical-Bestselling/dp/1035042150\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy The Map of Bones now</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/katemossewriter\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Follow Kate on Instagram</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.katemosse.co.uk/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Kate's website</a></p><p><br></p><p>Support us on Patreon and get great benefits!: <a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/ukpageone\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.patreon.com/ukpageone</a></p><p><br></p><p>Page One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
