1915: A precious gemstone is stolen from a Northumberland castle following a German air raid. Though its existence is known only to a select few, local rumour has long connected it with an artefact possessed by the legendary Merlin that disappeared from the royal treasury in 1232. Contemporary chroniclers wrote of the stone as a talisman in battle.
And capable of rendering its holder invisible.
Present Day: When an identical gemstone is listed for auction by the descendants of the chief suspect, none in the White Hart doubt that the Merlin Stone has resurfaced. While the stone’s return is long sought, for Mike Hansen and his grandfather, Bennett, there is an added complication: their ancestor’s role in the theft. No sooner is the stone in sight than the mission is compromised.
For Mike Hansen and Kit Masterson, the stone’s recovery poses a challenge like none other. To uncover the truth, Hansen must delve not only into the darkest chapters of Britain’s history but his family’s. A priceless artefact remains lost: one, if the medieval legends are true, had the potential to bring cities to their knees . . .
To save an innocent loved one may mean sacrificing thousands . . .
