Synopsis

Set in 1899, this Sherlock Holmes adventure opens on the morning of the vernal equinox, when Inspector Lestrade summons Holmes to Stonehenge following a report of a murdered girl. At the site, Holmes finds a young woman’s body marked with a druidic symbol painted in blood and a further message written in an unfamiliar language that neither he nor Lestrade can decipher.

With unsettling details arranged around the corpse, Holmes senses a malevolent force at work but recognises he needs evidence before he can act. As the weeks pass, he researches ancient druids and Celtic mythology, gradually assembling a small group of specialists to help him pursue the truth. Suitable for readers who enjoy Sherlock Holmes pastiches and historical mystery.
