Two very different men meet in a remote cabin. One is looking for gold. The other is transporting a very special purchase back to his home. As a snowstorm rages all around them, these two men are about to come face to face with an evil they can't possibly comprehend. Richard Garrett is a man on a mission. A former soldier, he's now dedicated to a strange and unnatural ritual that sees him travel far and wide. The purchase on the back of his cart has to be protected. Stuart Munver, meanwhile, is a man whose greed knows no end, who has been searching endlessly for gold, without any success. Desperate to prove himself, Munver will stop at nothing in his quest for glory. What strange purchase does Garrett have on the back of his cart? Why are two mysterious gold coins marked in an unknown language? And – in the present day – can two archaeologists uncover the truth before the evil strikes again? The Purchase is a horror story about greed, faith, and the true price of returning from the dead.
