Book description
Glastonbury, legendary resting place of the Holy Grail, is a
mysterious and haunting town. But when plump, dizzy Diane Ffitch
returns home, it's with a sense of deep unease - and not only about
her aristocratic family's reaction to her broken engagement and her
New Age companions. Plans for a new motorway have intensified the old
bitterness between the local people and the 'pilgrims', so already the
sacred air is soured. And, as the town becomes increasingly split by
violence and death, Diane, local bookseller Juanita Carey and the
writer Joe Powys must now face up to the worst of all possibilities:
the existence of an anti-Grail - the dark chalice.
