  • I brougt the book as a birthday present for my ex wife Carol, and we both got the bug. traveeld round the UK and when it was found in Ampthil our phone never stopped. We lived in Bletchley,Milton Keynes which is 4 miles away from Ampthill. we had actually gone to the hill and the cross but not having solved the clues were not able to find it. One of my daughters called it the "Book of the golden rabbit." so near and yet so far LOL

  • @VICTORGIRAFFE Really glad you acknowledge the artwork. It was frequently disappointing to me that Williams' BRILLIANT talent was often overshadowed in the media by the value of the prize. I think the true value lies in the artist's absolute masterful talent.

  • I got this book for my 7th birthday off a weird liitle boy in my class. That was in 1986. I was enthralled by the beautiful, ethereal artwork. It is spellbinding. I knew the treasure had already been discovered. My brother told me so. Nonetheless I perused Masquerade everyday and got lost in the artwork. The Wickerman featured a buried hare and I remember thinking that there was some weird pagan connection.

  • I've heard about this programme, but never seen it~ thank you so much for posting it! I'm sure you know about the scandal that emerged in the late '80s which revealed 'Ken Thomas' to be a cheat, and every inch as unlikeable as this video makes him appear. I know Kit was terribly heartbroken that the jewel should be found in such circumstances, and that the two physics teachers who solved it correctly should have missed out so unjustly.
