Spirit Chamber

Spirit Chamber Book Two of the Benchland series Five thousand years ago--late in the Age of Copper--two desperate couples found winter refuge in a cave. Exploring miles of subterranean passages, they discovered an exit onto the Benchland, a three-mile-long shelf of fertile ground, an isolated and beautiful place of wildflower, forest, and stream, set high on the steep wall of a river canyon and completely inaccessible to roving raiders, the scourge of that time in Europe. With ample game, year-round water, and firewood, the Benchland became home to the four founders and generations of their descendants.

The Benchland series is based on paintings the original settlers left on the walls of the cave--a pictorial diary of the colony, now an archaeological and historic treasure. Spirit Chamber recounts events in the lives of the colony's second and third generations and tells of the discovery of the cave and its paintings by modern scientists who find, deep within the cave, a mysterious and spectacular place of power that binds them to the original settlers--the spiritual heart of the Benchland colony . . . the Spirit Chamber.
