Is there a genuinely dark heart beating beneath the thatched roofs of the picturesque village of Triskellion?
Against a brooding background of very real danger, the two young outsiders follow an incredible trail on an archaeological adventure with a startling paranormal twist. In a community that has existed in the same place for centuries, many terrible secrets lay hidden, and the villagers of Triskellion have a great deal to protect ...
