Flesh And Bones

Description

From the ruins of an ancient abbey, British archaeologists unearth the skull of a young monk. Using the very latest technology, Liam's dad must attempt to put the flesh back on the bone and give life back to the skull. What did the young man look like? But as his dad works, Liam finds himself submitting to an irresistible force. As he looks into the cavities where eyes had once been, he hears a voice calling out across the centuries - "Foul deeds. Murder. The Black Arts." Who was this young monk and how did he die? The questions keep coming as Liam is drawn into a centuries-old mystery, embarking on a journey that will force him and his father to confront their own recent loss.
