It is 1955 and a fifteen-year-old girl escapes from her predictable English life to the sun-drenched cobbles of an ancient European town. When she falls in love with the place she falls, too, for its favourite son.
As the years pass and the girl becomes a woman, she returns again and again to the town and her lover. She meets intriguing characters and hears about visions, a strangely wealthy priest, a fabulus garden owned by a Frenchwoman. Cast as the detective in her own story, the woman finds herself caught up in a world she barely knew existed.
The rich priest was none other than the Abbé Saunière of Rennes le Chateau and the mysteries surrounding him are at the very heart of the modern Grail phenomenon- the stuff of bestselling novels and movies, historical analysis and high-profile court cases. The people she has known for so many years belong to a secret society that guards Saunière's legacy and now they ask her to be the messenger. It is time, they say, to present some of their closely guarded secrets to the world.
