Book excerpt: Bath Abbey, 1199. The Abbey's unpopular prior is found dead on Solsbury Hill. When Sir Symon Cole and his wife, Gwenllian, arrive to investigate, they hear whisperings that the Prior has met with divine punishment. For it is said that on Solsbury Hill, only those who are pure in heart can survive a night when the moon is full. Gwenllian launches a daring investigation that puts her in great danger and Sir Symon accepts a challenge to visit the hill at night. Sacred treasures. Dangerous secrets. Plots against church, crown and government. What will today's archaeologists make of the mysteries uncovered on this haunted site?
