Summary

A quiet country village in the heart of Derbyshire, England is shocked when visitors to the local moors and stone circle begin to go missing. A search by police and the local search and rescue team turns up no trace of them. A group of strangers have arrived at the sleep village and a new tenant has taken over the farm above the old stone circle. Are they suspects? Have they brought the problems of the city into the country with them? Benjamin, the barman at the local pub and his girlfriend, Janey, find themselves drawn into a plot to bring hell to earth at the expense of thirteen hearts. Hopefully they can foil the plot before blood is spilled. Perhaps even their own.
