“Book Descriptions: Practically everyone in the travelling party assumes that formidable Home Office psychoanalyst Dame Beatrice Bradley is accompanying the group to keep an eye on one of its members. Everyone is under that assumption, perhaps, except for Dame Beatrice herself. The party--gathered and led by Professor Q. X. Owen--will tour the prehistoric stone circles of Northern England. Professor Owen has added his cousin Catherine, an acerbic college student named Stewart, a high-spirited (and highly superstitious) young woman named Capella, and two nuns to the mix. Along with Dame B. and Laura, a couple named Lionel and Clarissa--claiming they're husband and wife but rarely acting like it--round out the group.
Dame Beatrice takes an interest in fanciful Capella, whose childhood visit to Oxfordshire's Rollright Stones captured her imagination with the legend of the Whispering Knights. She also finds the claims of the younger nun intriguing: Sister Veronica has spotted an additional presence following the group, hiding behind the stones. When one respondent's answers are stolen after a rainy evening's round of the Truth Game, the old detective is comforted to know that the group's members are soon destined to go their separate ways. But an evening visit to a stone circle in Callanish heralds a disquieting discovery: Capella finds the body of a woman on the ground. The victim is unknown and her identity remains a mystery, though the next surprise is even harder to dismiss. This time Catherine Owen is found, murdered in the same manner of the earlier woman. Her body lies among the Rollright Stones, and the watchful Knights refuse to speak of what they have witnessed.” DRIVE
