Synopsis

Eight days before the summer solstice, a man is butchered in a blood-freezing sacrifice on the ancient site of Stonehenge before a congregation of robed worshippers. Within hours, one of the world's foremost treasure hunters has shot himself in his country mansion. And to his estranged son, young archaeologist Gideon Chase, he leaves a cryptic letter. Teaming up with an intrepid policewoman, Gideon soon exposes a secret society—an ancient international legion devoted for thousands of years to Stonehenge.

With a charismatic and ruthless new leader at the helm, the cult is now performing ritual human sacrifices in a terrifying bid to unlock the secret of the stones. Packed with codes, symbology, relentless suspense, and fascinating detail about the history of one of the world's most mysterious places, The Stonehenge Legacy is a blockbuster to rival the very best of Dan Brown.

3 rascados... Ha sido bastante interesante el libro, en términos culturales/historicos Stonehenge es bastante interesante, o al menos eso pudieron haber hecho.

Goodreads review by Craig on June 23, 2017

Inspired by a recent visit to Stonehenge, I grabbed a copy of this book (from the Visitor Centre itself, and read it while in Salisbury for the weekend). I was pretty hopeful, but it turned out to be a bit of a strange read. Not in terms of the mysticism associated with the ancient stones, but in tha......more

Goodreads review by David on February 22, 2011

This is a very enjoyable first novel by this new author. The blurb on the back of the book says it is packed with codes like Dan Brown's books, it is not. There is a small reference to a code being the reverse greek alaphabet. Apart from that the novel goes at a steady pace beginning to introduce th......more
