Exciting finale to the Defenders trilogy.

My name is Seth. I can see into the past. And I can feel the horror. Seth and his mum have escaped to a Cornish seaside town. But life there is unsettled by the ebb and flow of people from the past – and the present. An Iron Age hill fort haunts Seth with brutal visions. He sees rotten heads onstakes, war-torn travellers seeking refuge, incomers cowed by fear … Can Seth find the courage to settle past hostilities and create hope for the future?
