Strange things are happening in Muriel Grayson's safe, plodding routine of eat-sleep-work-

repeat. Not just strange. Unusual. Transforming. She's hearing the clarion call of adventure.

Leaving her job and old name behind, she revisits a dream of becoming an archaeologist, by

applying to attend a summer dig in coastal Yorkshire. Led by the British poster boy for

archaeology, Jack Shepherd, the dig is trying to locate a bronze age burial site. The newly

named Samantha Grayson arrives on site and is immediately at odds with Jack Shepherd over

the dig location.

Through studying local folklore, myth and legend, Samantha's adventure becomes a personal

odyssey, an obsession to find the burial site on her own. Along the way she makes new friends

and finds allies in her quest. She uncovers her courage, her self-belief and undergoes

emotional shifts and spiritual experiences that are so profound and closely entwined, she no

longer sees any separation between them.

And on one, truly magical afternoon, amongst the sand dunes, the truth is revealed.
