I just loved the first book from Jenni Mills - Crow Stone, so I've been looking forward to the next. So I was very pleased when it popped up on Book Depository (I think courtesy of my own personal enabler Em in LA!)
This has an intriguing outline - 1938, war is looming and archaeologist Alexander Keiller - a millionaire with a passion for ritual magic - plans to reconstruct the 5000-year-old stone circle at Avebury. Frannie, and her boyfriend Davey, are among those who fall under his spell, with fatal results.
Seventy years later Frannie's granddaughter India returns to Avebury to investigate her family history. But why is her grandmother so reluctant to talk about Keiller and the War? And what secrets of India's own lie buried?
The village of Avebury is one of the most mysterious places in the English countryside. Surrounded by ancient standing stones, crop circles and burial mounds, this is a place where all is not as it seems.
