Present Day - Emma and Dave's hopes of a fresh start in their new home are shattered when Emma hears the bells of the old village church. But this is impossible, the village of Thores-Cross and its church were drowned decades ago by the waters of Thruscross Reservoir.
Emma soon learns the dark significance of the bells: Jennet has woken.
