The unexpected suicide of an apparently happy family man... A woman held captive for three years in a forgotten underground bunker... A middle aged clergyman, at a crisis point in his life, drawn into a complicated relationship with a teenaged girl... Against the backcloth of these interwoven tales comes the story of two very different men who are dramatically thrown together. Piet Steyn and Granville St Clair - both profoundly religious but opposite to one another in almost every respect - are the accidental witnesses to a private domestic tragedy. They feel compelled to keep the incident secret, but it is a decision that will have disastrous repercussions and ultimately threaten to destroy them both. A tense thriller that explores a conflict of evil and idealism, of despair, obsession and twisted spirituality, that co-exist just beneath the surface of seemingly respectable people in a quiet, rural community.
