Secrets of the past are archaeologist Dr Jeffrey Flint’s speciality.
The deeper they are buried, the better.
Memories of excavating an ancient Greek site in 1983, and his feelings for glamourous hotelier Lisa, come back to haunt Jeffrey Flint seven years later. What happened the night of Sebastian Embury’s death?
Greeks, Romans, Turks, Germans, Americans and eccentric Englishmen throw their shadows across his path, but who and where is Byron? And while he’s chasing clues buried in history to clear his name, who is chasing him?
Dr Flint is on the case, probing twenty-three centuries of Greek history to uncover a tale of romance, heroism, death and betrayal.
Flint makes a welcome return to build upon the great success of his first appearance in Darkness Rises. The 2024 edition comes with a new author’s note about the world of archaeology in the 1980s.
