Angol
First came the accident.
The nightmares followed.
Then the guilt.
Schoolteacher Adam Chant flees his home city, desperate to escape a past that refuses to loosen its grip. He finds himself in Maidenstone-a town strangely familiar, long forgotten, and steeped in quiet unease. It is meant to be a fresh start. A road to recovery. A place where no one knows his name... and no one asks questions.
Life begins to rebuild. Adam finds work, forms tentative friendships, and starts to believe he can finally move on. But Maidenstone is not what it appears. Beneath its fog-choked streets lie darker truths: missing children, pagan tattooed townsfolk, and the scent of drug-fuelled corruption. This is a place where everyone sees everything, whisper behind closed doors, and watch with cruel, knowing eyes.
As the mystery deepens, Adam finds friendship in Becky Shaw, a fellow teacher whose warmth cuts through the town's chill. But as their bond grows, as does the danger surrounding them.
What lies behind Maidenstone's religious factions?
What secrets do the schoolchildren carry?
And just who is the man in black?
Some towns never let you leave. Others never let you forget.
