A Sunday Times top 10 hardback bestseller. Ancient secrets buried
deep in Glastonbury's past. And one woman's quest to finally set
them free. Cambridge, present day: Following the death of her
mother, Abi Rutherford receives a mysterious bequest - a misshapen
crystal sphere known as the Serpent's Stone, which gives her
glimpses into mysteries long concealed by the church. Western
England, 25 AD: A stranger has come to the chilly Somerset
wetlands, with a story of hope and reconciliation. But he is being
followed by powerful forces, determined that he will not undermine
Roman rule in Britain. Abi questions what connects these ancient
events and her gift. Why do so many people seem desperate to hide
the truth? A dark shadow has fallen across the centuries, and a
woman is in fear for her life. But is it danger that awaits her, or
the final truth so long whispered across the echoes of time?
