AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The body of twelfth-century Queen Berengaria is discovered hidden in Westminster Abbey. The discovery that she is technically 'alive' in the below-freezing room where she lies, inspires some Oxford medical students to want to revive her, but they find that Berengaria holds a potentially earth-shattering secret.
