Summary
"On a warm dark evening in 1991 a young homeless woman carrying a baby turns up on Bartlemy Goodman's doorstep at Thornyhill house, England." "Annie Ward is frightened and alone in the world, apart from for her small son Nathan - an exceptional infant, for his mother cannot account for his conception. Nor can Annie understand the sense of threat which has overshadowed her since her child's birth or why Bartlemy's company now instantly feels like a haven from danger." "Bartlemy Goodman welcomes them for he's been waiting for a sign like this for millenia and Nathan enjoys an idyllic childhood protected by his new family. But everything changes when he chances upon the lost and ancient sunken chapel of the Thorn family and comes across a cup of blood, which may or may not be the Grail."--BOOK JACKET.
