MANCHESTER 1888

Through the darkness of a mid-winter nightshift, the flicker of a candle flame illuminates the exhaustion in Dr Warren Carter's eyes; memories of a painful surgery and the fine line of human frailty haunt his every thought. A nightcap with the beautiful Rosie is just the tonic he needs.

What should've been a pleasant encounter soon turns sinister when the young nurse disappears without a trace.

One by one more disappearances occur at the hospital, until a private investigator is brought in to assist. But rather than finding answers, he becomes trapped in a nightmare of his own making...
