Hidden Alignment - Paperback

by Ariel Delos-Reyes Kings (Author)

Some places are not lost.
They are simply... not understood.

Nigel Pembroke arrives in the Hampshire countryside expecting nothing more than quiet-a brief escape from a life built on order and precision.

Instead, he notices something.

A line between villages.
An alignment that should mean nothing-yet feels exact.

Liphook. Greatham. Bramshott. Black Down. Frensham.
Each point fixed.
Each connection deliberate.

With Francine Heath-a local historian who does not explore places so much as confirm them-Nigel begins to uncover a pattern not built upon the land, but embedded within it.

Not a mystery to be solved.
A system to be understood.

Some say the pattern was first traced by Edward Harrow, a surveyor who never truly left the land he measured.

But not everyone is searching for understanding.

Dr. Marcus Calder sees opportunity-something to map, to control.

He is wrong.

Because this system does not yield.
It does not resist.
It proceeds.

And those who follow it too far may discover-

there is no way back.
