Gordon Butcher is a simple Suffolk ploughman who expects nothing more than another hard day of work in the fields. Instead, his plow strikes something solid, uncovering the greatest hoard of buried treasure ever discovered in the British Isles. Unearthed from the soil are magnificent pieces of Roman silver, unmatched in their beauty and historical value.
Butcher has no idea of the true worth of his breathtaking discovery. What follows is a gripping true story of a monumental historical find and the bitter betrayal that follows. Unscrupulous individuals recognize the fortune gleaming in the dirt and quickly plot to claim the ancient silver for themselves, savagely cheating the honest ploughman out of his rightful reward.
Roald Dahl turns his masterful storytelling to a fascinating piece of real history, crafting a suspenseful narrative about a priceless discovery and human greed. Readers will be captivated by the journey of the Mildenhall treasure from the dark earth to the museum display, and the tragic fate of the man who first brought it into the light.
