-----

It all begins with an egg . . .
With a hungry child who risks her life for an omelette for tea - and finds a miracle.
With thieves committing crimes against nature on the wild cliffs of Yorkshire.
With a marvel that becomes a mystery . . .
and then a myth.

And 100 years later it begins again. . .
With a strange robbery at a remote Welsh cottage.
With two friends thrust from their gaming chairs into a real-life quest.
And with dangerous men who will stop at nothing to get what they want.

It all begins with an egg.
But where will it end?


'A
 wonderful, brilliant mystery' LAURA SHEPHERD-ROBINSON

‘A captivating novel from 
one of the UK’s most talented storytellers. I loved every page of this unique mystery.’ CLARE MACKINTOSH
