"The skeleton resurfaced after having been buried for thousands of years. The skull turned out to be cracked and the slightly opened mouth seemed to want to whisper its story." In this book a skeleton and its unique grave goods are brought to light after a heavy storm on the Tuscan beach of Baratti.
Laura and Lina, two expert archaeologists called in to direct the excavation, are faced with what is not simply one of the most surprising finds in recent years, but a real mystery to be unravelled, packed with enigmatic objects and obscure inscriptions. Flowing between the words and the pages, water and wine run through the folds of history with all their symbolic and spiritual power.
Through an accurate, documented and - where there was insufficient evidence - fictional historical reconstruction, we are transported back to the 6th century BC. The reader finds himself immersed in the dramatic events taking place in the life of young Velio, closely linked to that of Petrus, an unscrupulous wine merchant. At the same time, the past also dances with the present and is intertwined with the personal stories of the two young archaeologists and a crime story of our own day.
This book is for those who are passionate about ancient history but have their feet firmly anchored in the present, for those who have a dream and are willing to do anything to achieve it, for those who can imagine and experience a story just by looking at a reflection in a window pane or by following the flight of a butterfly.
