Description
1881. When Henry Gough journeys to a remote and mysterious Cornish village steeped in secrets, what begins as a quiet investigation quickly descends into chaos when he uncovers a tangled web of vicious smugglers, strange hauntings, and long-buried grudges.
The mystery only deepens when the local parson collapses at the font of his church under suspicious circumstances. As Henry delves further into the darkness surrounding the village, he finds himself pulled into a dangerous game - where every shadow hides a secret, and every ally might be a foe...
