Night is Day Night is Day

Director: Fraser Coull

Year: 2012

Jason Mackenzie has become a hidden hero; a rumour, an urban myth. DCI Charles Sloan is a veteran in the police force who knows the truth behind the whispered tales. He has had his own encounters with supernatural entities, demons and vampires, and knows first-hand the work of the lightning vigilante. Now there is a new danger in the city: the Caillech, an ancient creature portrayed in legend as wielding an unstoppable hammer, bent on wreaking havoc after centuries of exile. Teamed with a former adversary of Jason's, whose phony contrition has many fooled, the Caillech is a formidable threat to the peace Jason struggles to maintain. In Night Is Day Jason must focus all his powers on discovering the Caillech's intentions and defeating her before she decimates his city. He must ensure the safety of DCI Sloan and his team, who are determined to play their part in helping Jason despite the increased danger they face as mere humans. And he must find out what's so important about Lena, a medical student he saved from a vicious attack, and who seems to have an uncanny connection with the Caillech.
