and its ancient secrets best of all.
Untouched by the stock market crash of 1929 Kenya is the glamorous and exotic retreat for many seeking to escape the privations of the western world.
After a group of friends get drawn into a strange shamanic ritual that changes their perception of reality, they find themselves on a path they cannot help but follow, to a secret that could change the destiny of mankind.
One secret leads to another, and before they know it, they find themselves searching for a set of ancient artefacts, hidden at some of the world’s most ancient sites.
But there are those for whom preserving such secrets is not only a responsibility, but also a solemn duty. Powerful individuals who will apparently stop at nothing to protect the world from the secrets of the past.’
Peter Knyte was born and grew up in North Staffordshire, England, where more by chance than design he first stumbled across the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, Arthur Ransome of Swallows & Amazons fame, David’s Gemmell and Eddings through their Legend and Belgariad series, and met Jonathan Livingstone Seagull through the eponymously named title by Richard Bach.
North Staffordshire and the Staffordshire Moorlands are also where Peter developed his love of walking and the countryside.
After leaving Staffordshire, Peter moved to Middlesbrough, Birmingham, London and Leeds during which time he grew to love Neil Gaiman’s Sandman comics, Asimov’s Foundation series, and Rider Haggards tales of She Who Must be Obeyed and King Solomon’s Mines.
Peter still lives in Leeds, West Yorkshire, where he continues to enjoy walking and the countryside, as well as gardening, motorcycling, rock climbing, snowboarding and cooking.
