Explore the isolated moors of rural Victorian England while uncovering mysteries.
The answers lie beneath the ground... Antiquarian Thomasina Bateman is writing a book about England’s wheelbarrows, documenting the treasures she finds buried inside them.
When an intriguing letter summons her to the small village of Bewlay, nestled in the remote countryside, she sets off by train with her assistant a day behind.
Upon arrival, however, the mysterious man who called her is nowhere to be found. Her assistant never arrives. A stubborn landowner refuses access to the wheelbarrow, and the locals are wary of this woman traveling alone and (gasp!) wearing trousers.
The excavation of Hob's Barrow gets off to a rocky start. Then Thomasina begins to have strange dreams...
