"Candlenight" is about a London couple on the fast track who decide to move to Wales. As hard as they try, the townspeople are cold to them. Then there's the lights flickering by the church. Whenever someone goes near them, they are no longer heard from. The church itself contains an ancient artifact that has the whole town affected in a negative way. The back cover states that "Phil Rickman is a brilliant master of sinister rural communities with dark secrets". That he is indeed.
