THREE IMPERIAL KEYS - JOHN THORNTON

Over the centuries, all these artefacts will eventually be found, but the lives of the discoverers will be changed forever. The story explores the creation of the three imperial keys and then their long-awaited discovery. Roman Britain was the chosen land where the artefacts were to be buried, having been scattered within the existing Roman settlements that were flourishing at the time. Over many centuries, the circumstances of certain individuals will be identified, together with their struggles, conflicts, and innocent involvement.

When all of the artefacts are finally unearthed, and the need to bring them together is realised, the chest's secrets can then be revealed. However, the three imperial keys have their own secrets, which will need to be solved. When that is achieved, only then will the secrets of an emperor be revealed to a more understanding world.
