In a race against time, Dan and Sam must navigate ancient secrets and looming threats in The Celtic Deception to save history from destruction.
In The Celtic Deception, the stakes are high as Dan Renfrew grapples with the burdens of time travel. At just seventeen, he finds himself caught in a web of responsibility that feels far too heavy for his age. The pressure mounts as he and his partner, Sam, embark on a perilous journey to thwart Victor Stahl's nefarious plans. Their mission takes them back to the Celtic island of Anglesey in 60 CE, a time fraught with danger and uncertainty.
Upon arrival, Dan and Sam quickly realize that the island holds many secrets. The druids, who are believed to hold the key to their quest, are not as forthcoming as they had hoped. The Celts, initially welcoming, may have their own hidden agendas that could jeopardize the mission. As Dan navigates this unfamiliar world, he must learn to trust his instincts and decipher who is friend or foe. The tension escalates with the looming threat of two Roman legions, intent on destruction, closing in on the island.
Time is of the essence, and every moment counts in The Celtic Deception. As the clock ticks down, Dan and Sam must unravel the mysteries surrounding them to save not only their present but the future of history itself. Can they uncover the truth before it’s too late?
