The Book of Life (All Souls Trilogy #3) by Deborah Harkness, 576 p.

This much-anticipated last book in the All Souls trilogy did not disappoint. In the last book, we left Diana and Matthew back in modern times after they had time-traveled back to the present from the 1600's. Finding Ashmole 782 is now more important than ever. They face many enemies, both old and new. Diana is learning more and more about her powers, both of the witchcraft kind and the power of family. This book takes us from the de Clairmont ancestral home of Sept-Tours to the laboratories of London. The family needs to be expanded, yet at the same time, crucial family members need to be demolished. This book is not to be missed, and if you haven't yet delved into this trilogy, it it well worth the time.
