Synopsis

A spell-binding, occult thriller by writer Anthony Shaffer. A policeman goes to a remote Scottish Island to investigate the disappearance of a local girl - but he discovers a lot more than he bargained for. The Islanders are throwbacks to a distant past, worshipping [sic] the ancient gods of Earth, Rain and Sun, led by their sinister overlord in erotic rituals and savage ceremonies of human sacrifice. Around the puritanical, holier-than-thou policeman they weave a web of hedonistic pleasure - and terror. And when he finally discovers what happened to the girl, his nightmare is only just beginning...
