When Alice McCleish's gardener Brian unearths an object of great
archaeological significance deep under the compost heap it is not
only Alice and her burgeoning friendship with Margaret Allerton,
retired Professor of Anthropology, that are affected: the family,
friends and neighbours of Alice, who people the narrative, are also
touched by subsequent events. Alice and Margaret find themselves
questioning long-held beliefs about the material and spiritual
world that surrounds them; and both women find their lives
transformed unalterably by their newfound companionship.
Serendipity puts Alice's nearest neighbour, the troubled Violet
Turnbull, in touch with the enigmatic Avian Tyler, whose mystical
'gift' offers Violet a promise of liberation. All the while an
echoing voice from long, long ago hints at the history of the
locality dominated by the standing stone circle that bestrides the
skyline above the small community of Duddo, while charting the
harrowing story that reveals the provenance of the artefacts found
beneath the compost heap.
