Publisher's Synopsis
This is a beautifully told story about a medieval castle on the border between England and Wales, the castle's modern-day keeper and his young son, and their discovery of a magnificent hoard of buried treasure. It is however, essentially a parable with a clear moral view -- right is might and virtue does prevail. In this exciting children's story with a universal message, readers of Graves will recognise again, his hatred of the technology of destruction, his belief in a code of honour, sportsmanship and fair play, and his loathing of army jam.
