Descriere The Shadowy Horses - Susanna Kearsley

Verity Grey abandons her comfortable job to seek adventure on an archaeological dig in Scotland. But the entire team is following a local boy who claims that he saw a ghostly Roman soldier in the fields. And he's there to do more than guard the bodies of his fallen comrades. \n \nI've loved every one of Susanna's books She has bedrock research and a butterfly's delicate touch with characters--sure recipe for historical fiction that sucks you in and won't let go -- DIANA GABALDON, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Outlander\n \nThe invincible ninth Roman Legion marches from York to fight the Northern tribes, and then vanishes from the pages of history. When Verity Grey goes looking for them, she may find more than she bargained for.\n \nArchaeologist Verity Grey has been drawn to the dark legends of the Scottish Borderlands in search of the truth buried in a rocky field by the sea.\n \n Her eccentric boss has spent his whole life searching for the resting place of the lost Ninth Roman Legion and is convinced he's finally found it--not because of any scientific evidence, but because a local boy has seen a Roman soldier walking in the fields, a ghostly sentinel who guards the bodies of his long--dead comrades.\n \n Here on the windswept shores, Verity may find the answer to one of the great unsolved mysteries of our time. Or she may uncover secrets someone buried for a reason.\n \nOther bestselling books by Susanna Kearsley: \n The Winter Sea \n A Desperate Fortune \n The Firebird \n
