Manchester, the present. Michael divides his time between the job centre and the pub. A chance meeting with Lee, and an introduction to her ‘Uncle’ Ian, and a heavy night on the lash, lead to a job working the door at a Northern Quarter massage parlour. After witnessing the violent death of one of the ‘punts’, Michael experiences blood-drenched flashbacks and feels himself being sucked into a twilight world that he doesn’t understand but that is irresistibly attractive. When he eventually finds out what goes on in the room below Cloud 9, Michael’s life will never be the same again.<br /> “Think Bret Easton Ellis. On a writing break in the north of England. And all he packed was Fight Club and some early Stephen King novels."

But as darkness falls, Sarah suspects they're not alone, Ed goes to investigate and quickly, the evening becomes a nightmare. It suddenly dawns on them; they do not belong here. And they certainly aren't welcome either.

Prowling in the darkest corner of a desolate, abandoned building on the edge of a wilderness is a dangerous animal, one that lives by the rules of the wild, where survival is it’s only concern. This creature of the night uses cunning and instinct to hunt and kill for pleasure. It has no qualms about its actions; it lives by its carnal desires alone. <br /> <br /> Sophie, a teenager with a troubled past, puts herself and her friends at the mercy of this beast, when her curious obsession with the unexplained leads them deep into the Welsh countryside. When her friend is violently attacked Sophie soon discovers what it's like to become the object of this animal's obsessive desire. She is locked in an isolated empty room, where no one can hear her screams. In the night, in the dark, something is trying to get in and Sophie is terrified. Daylight brings Gavin. He keeps the animal at bay as best he can. A protector of sorts, but a protector who also keeps her imprisoned. Sophie’s attempts at escape repeatedly end in failure, but she clings to the hope that her friends will rescue her. Unfortunately their desperate search for Sophie will inevitably end in death and despair. Sophie must confront the mysteries that are locked in her past and discover the truth about her captor, if she is to survive the beast’s unstoppable and obsessive onslaught.
