When Adam wrote down the names he allocated to the earth's creatures, he never expected the manuscript would one day be fought over by a disgraced French Count, two Russian oligarchs, and a rogue's gallery of misfitsas the fate of the world hangs in the balance.
When a dishevelled ex-con collides with a bankrupt aristocrat on a rain-soaked Parisian street, they unwittingly set off a chain of events that unearths a conspiracy older than the French Republicand possibly the universe itself. At the centre lies a decaying château, a stolen fortune, and a leather-bound artefact whispered about in obscure footnotes and forbidden histories: The Book of Names.
Said to contain the true name of every living thing, the Book bestows immense power upon those who understand its secrets. Pursued by oligarchs, occultists, and a witch who once ruled the steppes, the unlikely duo are joined by a master thief, a philosophising chef, and three daughters of an extinct warrior ordereach drawn into a caper that blurs the line between myth and memory.
The Book of Names is a razor-sharp literary thriller about identity, secrecy, and the dangerous magic of language.

"Richly imagined, slyly satirical, and eerily relevant, The Book of Names explores the terrifying possibility that words don't just describe the worldthey control it."
