Folk horror meets ancient gods in a remote snowbound Peak District
town where several murders take place...
In a lonely village in the Peak District, during the onset of a
once-in-a-lifetime snow storm, Constable Ellie Cheetham finds a body.
The man, a local ne'er-do-well, appears to have died in a tragic
accident: he drank too much and froze to death.
But the facts don't add up: the dead man is clutching a knife in one
hand, and there's evidence he was hiding from someone. Someone who
watched him die. Stranger still, an odd mark has been drawn onto a stone
beside his body.
The next victims are two families on the outskirts of town. As the storm
rises and the body count grows, Ellie realises she has a terrifying
problem on her hands: someone - or some thing - is killing
indiscriminately, attacking in the darkness and using the storm for
cover.
The killer is circling ever closer to the village. The storm's getting
worse... and the power's just gone out.
