Through the woods he finds a tiny village inn where he meets a woman and they share stories through the night.

Great choice! I read this book in 2009. I think I got it from Waterstones since they weren’t selling it in the US at the time. I also brought home
Sepulchre and
Citadel from England. The release dates in the UK were about 6 months earlier than the US, and I couldn’t wait.
Labyrinth was made into a miniseries starring Jessica Brown Findlay from Downton Abbey. Fun fact: Mosse was the cofounder of the Women’s Prize for Fiction (Orange Prize). I didn’t learn that until after I started reading her books.
