Paul, a young academic composing a thesis about the end of the world, and his girlfriend Hazel, a potter, have come to the tiny English village of Alder for the summer. Their idea of a rural retreat gradually sours as the laws of nature begin to break down around them. The village, swollen by an annual rock festival of cataclysmic proportions, prepares to reap a harvest of horror.

Recensione:
"A tour de force which succeeds brilliantly." --The Times
If you enjoy bold, bloody and undeniably adult horror then I suggest you look no further than here. --The Eloquent Page
"One of Newman s best works and a must-read." --Killer Aphrodite
"Most horror writers would kill to be able to create such a delirious, hallucinogenic concatenation of nightmares on the page... Newman s wit, invention and descriptive powers have never been more vividly stated. --Horror View
