Morgan Llewellyn is fifty-three years old.
He also remembers the Great Fire. He rowed survivors across the Thames while the city burned.
London, 1893. When a desperate aristocrat begs the private enquiry agent to find his missing son, the case looks ordinary enough — until Henry Whetham's body is pulled from the river with three spirals carved into his skin.
The police are content to call it an accident. Morgan knows better. He has seen that symbol before, and the memory is older than the city.
Alongside Isabelle Foster — a medical student fighting for her place in a man's world, and far too clever to be lied to for long — he follows Henry's trail through stolen papers, ransacked archives, and a secret society of wealthy men hunting something they believe has slept beneath Britain since the Neolithic.
They are not wrong. And they are closer to finding it than they know.
From the fog-bound streets of London to the storm-lashed stones of Orkney, Morgan must decide how much of himself he is willing to reveal in order to stop them — because Henry Whetham was not killed for what he knew.
He was killed for what he almost understood.
