This New York Times bestseller “fascinating in every way” (New York Times bestselling author Sarah Pierce) follows a team of researchers as they uncover a mysterious mystery at New York’s famed Metropolitan Abbey. A story of tarot cards and shocking secrets.

When Ann Stilwell arrived in New York City, she hoped to spend her summer working as a curatorial assistant at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Instead, she found herself assigned to the Abbey, a Gothic museum and gardens known for its collection of medieval art and its occult researchers studying the history of divination.

Eager to escape her painful past, Ann happily indulges in researchers’ more outlandish theories about the history of fortune telling. But what begins as an academic curiosity soon turns to obsession when she discovers a hidden deck of 15th-century tarot cards that may hold the key to predicting the future. When the dangerous game of power, seduction, and ambition in the cloisters turns deadly, Ann is plunged into a race to find answers as the lines between mystery and modernity become blurred.

An unforgettable and magical fusion of genres, “The Cloisters” is “a masterpiece of literary suspense that culminates in an otherworldly conclusion” (Mark Prince, author of “The Latinist”).
