«The Eight» is Katherine Neville's suspense novel, published by Ballantine Books in hardback (624 pages, in English).
In 1972, Cat Velis, a computer expert, travels to Algeria; a fortune-teller warns her of danger and an antique dealer asks her to find a missing chess set. In 1790, two novices from southern France hide those pieces around the world because the game they form is too powerful. Both plots connect around a chess set with hidden powers.
The plot revolves around the Montglane chess set; it is Katherine Neville's first novel, originally published in 1990.
For readers of historical suspense and conspiracies, with echoes of The Da Vinci Code.
