Solsbury Hill and the nearby city of Bath form the centre of a sequence of mysteries extending from the early medieval period to the present. Burials, buildings and local traditions preserve traces of violence even when the original events have been forgotten.

Each story reveals another stage in the landscape's history and another crime shaped by whoever controls the hill or interprets its remains. The final investigations show how modern evidence can recover fragments of truth while also disturbing secrets that earlier generations intended to keep buried.
