The body of a dead man leads Lorne Turner into a world he never thought existed. One of mysticism, the occult, corruption and greed.

After twenty years in the British Special Forces, Lorne thought he knew all he needed to about the sickness of the human mind. It turns out, he was wrong.

With a ritual sacrifice polluting his precious homeland, Lorne will stop at nothing to uncover the truth.

Who is the mysterious Scorpio, and what do the Gnostic Dawn hope to achieve? Why are the police refusing to see the ritual elements carved into the dead?

He turns to his best friend, the local vicar, Ella Morgan, for help. Together they uncover horrors that will infect their lives for years to come.

Trained for war, he now fights a darkness far more dangerous than anything he's faced in his past.

What will break first? His damaged mind? Or the bodies of his enemies?
