    The Field of Forty Footsteps

    The Field of Forty Footsteps

    An old tale tells of two brothers who fought a duel on a field, now believed to be somewhere in central London. They both died and the ground remembered this tragedy by never letting grass grow on their footsteps. But is this story just a step into the imagination or is the Field of Forty Footsteps somewhere in the capital city? Tiernan and Athena investigate and then its up to you Chief Detectives to decide the case.
