Bornholm is a tiny island in the Baltic sea, with 15 medieval churches and standing stones mark the island out as a sacred site. These markers demonstrate a brilliant and unexpected skill in land surveying, geometry and mathematics. This book describes the intriguing links between medieval Scandinavia, France and Jerusalem; and how men of influence all worked together in the twelfth century to preserve a fantastic secret.
In 1911 a forgotten Swedish expedition had burrowed beneath the City of David, echoing the activities of the fabled Knights Templar, almost eight hundred years earlier. What that expedition unearthed forms a bridge to the island two thousand miles away.
