No one observes the curfew anymore; the ringing is just a ritual. And the ancient standing stones that once surrounded the twon are long destroyed. But Max Goff thinks they should be replaced. The millionaire New-Age entrepreneaur believes tourists will flock to Crybbe to see the stones, to hear the quaint curfew bells, to feel teh Great Life Force...
But where there is a life force, there is also hunger. And in the light of the twentieth century, Max Goff has forgotten that every ritual has its purpose. And the powers of the old age, pent up for centuries, never really die. They come back - with a vengeance.
