In excerpts from his diary, Stephen records how last Christmas, he and James headed to Spain to initiate a study of several important architectural sites in Moorish Andalucia. When they discover a dead body with strange markings and an even stranger past at the bottom of a gorge in Ronda, a small town made famous by Hemingway and the home of the bullfight, their vacation takes on a more mysterious overcast. Then another body is found. And another. The secrets of the dead come thrillingly alive as Stephen and James try to piece together the clues and reveal a secret kept hidden for nearly 600 years. Can they do it before they become the next bodies at the bottom of the gorge?
With line drawings and illustrations by James Wilson and photography by Stephen Manning.
