Solstice

by Hilary Boyd

From bestselling author Hilary Boyd and her co-writer Barbara Roddam, this is a story where the imbalance of male/female energy is put right. The seven – three women and four men - are originally from Atlantis. They have powerful, mystical abilities which most of them are unaware of and an identical birthmark which identifies them on their wrist.

Weaving together their past and present lives, they gradually become aware of their extraordinary destiny – will they be ready to complete the vital ceremony at Stonehenge to rebalance the planet? The sun’s unique alignment at 11.12am on 21st December 2012 provides the only moment for thousands of years when it can take place successfully. But the seven are up against an old Atlantis enemy. And he will do everything in his power to stop them.
