The island: Craeghatir, a lonely rock off Cape Wrath, mainland Britain’s most northerly point; a place wreathed in mystery, superstition and a primitive fear of the unknown.

The intruders: an elite university team, hoping to make their names by unearthing the first major archaeological find of the 21st Century.

Their fate: uncertain.

For Craeghatir – wild but beautiful, almost serene in the midst of crashing waves, roaring whirlpools and thunderous gales – has a truly evil reputation. And it isn’t undeserved.

An ancient energy lies dormant in the rocks of Craeghatir. Even buried deep, its uncanny influence has reached out over the centuries to cause terror and madness. But now people have come here with picks and shovels. They intend to dig, to discover … and an unstoppable force is set to be unleashed!

This special edition includes the bonus short story ‘The Hellion’.
