Two years ago, the murder of local policeman Darcy Comer shattered the peace of the isolated mountain town of Blarnie, with the crime sharing similarities to the sinister murder of another local two decades ago. Now, as the town reels from still more bloodshed, the new murders also seem to echo this dark legacy. The old town rumours of a devil-cult, long dismissed as folklore, are now revived. A new and enigmatic cult has recently arrived in Blarnie, promising enlightenment but bringing fear. The arrival of these outsiders in town, led by a mysterious former resident, stirs up old wounds and intensifies the scrutiny of the town's secrets. Detective Sergeant Nick Vada is sent to Blarnie with his partner Joanna Gray, two years on from Darcy's murder, to investigate the cold case, and uncovers further unsettling connections between the murder and the town's shadowy past. With the line between reality and the occult blurring, Nick and Joanna must confront the sinister forces and unravel a chilling conspiracy that threatens to engulf the town in darkness ...
