There's something haunting about Britain's quiet woodlands. Beneath the soft moss and sharp bramble, history lies sleeping. Ancient stones, and whispered legends all hide, waiting to be stumbled upon. Archaeologists know this truth well; the land remembers everything, even when people do not.
The Priestess Stones captures that very spirit: the collision of past and present, faith and fear, curiosity and danger. What begins as an archaeological curiosity quickly becomes a riveting story of discovery, obsession, and the dark echoes of ritual that never quite fade away.
Dave Dorsett was once an archaeologist; he's now living a quieter life... until he discovers a hidden compartment in an antique Welsh dresser. Inside lies a stained illustration of a stone circle, surrounded by Latin text. To most, it would be an oddity, perhaps a collector's curiosity. Dave sees what others might miss; perhaps it was a clue to something that was never meant to be found.
With his daughter, Amber, a trained archaeologist, Dave begins a search through the British countryside to uncover fragments of history and myth, leading to a chilling connection between the lost circle, a long-forgotten cult, and a series of tragic events from centuries ago.
Running alongside their story is that of Matt Bradley, an inexperienced metal detectorist, who discovers an ancient artifact. He believes he's made the find of a lifetime, but his excitement shifts to fear as unpleasant events occur. His discovery isn't just old-it's cursed by its own past, and there are people willing to kill to get it.Also in
