Publisher Description

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.

"Not the type of book I usually read however that being said it was easy to get into, delving straight into the story and slowly unravelling the mysteries. Both exciting and gripping, I couldn't put this book down. My only fault for it is that the conclusion was slightly abrupt and I felt there could of been a little more story like a more in depth detail of what happened to the characters after the catastrophic events. But then I didn't want the book to end! I believe this book would enjoyed by most as it's an easy read that tangles you up in it's mystery."

    " I don't know how to rate this book, it somehow didn't fulfill it's potential. Plodded in places and for a secret society, it had a lot of members, and it was not exactly selective. I enjoyed it, a good fun read, but not original nor creative enough! "

    " An enjoyable read, interesting storyline and characters but there was just something missing for me. I liked the Stonehenge concept and the plot but as i said there was just something that was not there. Even i don't know what it was! Altho i would most definitely read San Christers other work. "

    " I enjoyed the story, listened to it on Audible on my way to and from the office. A reasonable paced story, but you could predict the plot and the characters. I enjoyed that I did not have to think to much to know what was going on. I will still aways enjoy books that involve Stonehenge. "
