In a nearby village he asks around for work, but the farmers, suspicious to the point of hostility, are not very forthcoming.

As time passes and he is gradually integrated into the community, it emerges that he’s not the only one with a past to hide. Something sinister is lurking under the immaculate surface of this picturesque little world - and it is slowly drawing him in.
