And it was no accident that on his return to England he found himself drawn to an old farmhouse on Bodmin Moor where, together the Maclain family, he witnessed eerie, inexplicable events which defied comprehension.What might be the connection between the stone circles on the Moor and the terrifying phenomena Waring experienced at the house? Between an Indian djinn and a remote Cornish farmhouse? Between the Maclains and alien beings from another time and place? Between earthly beliefs and a whole new way of being?
