The Buried Circle by Jenni Mills

These excerpts from "The Buried Circle" by Jenni Mills reveal a dual narrative, contrasting historical archaeological excavation at Avebury with a contemporary mystery and personal drama. The historical thread focuses on the 1930s-1940s work of archaeologist Mr. Keiller through the perspective of a young woman named Fran, who later becomes India's grandmother, revealing secrets about the digging, wartime life, and Keiller’s questionable ethics. The modern storyline follows India, who is involved in a documentary about the area while simultaneously investigating a helicopter crash and an accident involving Fran, all while navigating relationships and the enduring presence of pagan and New Age beliefs surrounding the ancient stone circle. The source also includes a disclaimer confirming the fictional nature of the plot and modern characters, despite the real-world setting of Avebury.
