Three days later, the knock came.
The second sign was the stone. A single, smooth, grey stone placed on the doorstep of her rented cottage. No note. No footprint. Just a stone that looked like an egg, warm from the sun even though it was midnight. Nicola picked it up. It fit perfectly in her palm. And for a reason she couldn’t name, she put it in her coat pocket.
Nicola Ridd had never believed in ghosts. She believed in rock pools, the grit of sand in her trainers, and the cold shock of diving into the North Sea on New Year’s Day. She believed in the weight of wet wool and the burn of a good, strong tea.
Nicola drove to the moor that same hour, flashlight trembling in her hand. She walked to the shepherd’s hut. The gate was open, as always. But this time, she looked at the bottom hinge.
Someone—or something—needed her to open the right lock at the wrong time.
The road. The new access track for the quarry. Approved last month. Set to cut straight through the eastern flank of the moor—through the old stone circle that archaeologists had just started to survey.
