History shows Sigtuna was burned in the summer of 1187, yet there is no explanation why
. . . or is there?
Seven centuries later n 1853 amongst the peaceful hamlet of Sigtuna, Sweden, Tulo Hök is struggling to provide more than the usual stale bread for his always-hungry little sister. While undertaking yet another dispiriting job, Tulo unearths frightening artifacts hidden in the St. Olof Church Ruins. He tinkers with the relics and accidentally triggers a mechanism. Out in the Sigtuna forest, an ancient stone structure rises from the earth.
Hoping the bizarre discovery could somehow provide for his sister, Tulo warily ventures into the woods. But instead of bringing hope, the archaic edifice could actually be a threat to his sister, as it begins to reveal it is more than just giant forgotten slabs of stone.
It was buried for a reason.
It Was Buried is a historical fantasy set in the 1850s in the historical town of Sigtuna, Sweden. It is a story of desperation and hope, while embroiled in myth and legend and perhaps reality. Do you know why Sigtuna was burned?
