Excerpt/Cold Open:
10 JULY 1995 - 3:06 AM TADFIELD, OXFORDSHIRE
In the light of a full moon, a tall, slender figure saunters through a wheat field. The night is quiet except for the susurration of the stalks and the distant sound of an owl hooting in a far-off tree. A dark farmhouse lingers in the distance. Either everyone who lives there is asleep or no one is home.
The figure is dressed all in black, except an orange, reflective patch on the upper back and shoulders and bands around the arms. Looking around as if making a decision, the figure removes the jacket, draping it over their right arm.
Left arm out to their side, the figure snaps their fingers. All around them in a perfect circle, the wheat bends until it’s flat against the ground. Branching out from there are several paths of bent wheat, and six other circles of varying sizes. The pattern resembles a sigil, a strange, almost alien symbol.
From a great distance, perhaps the next-nearest neighbouring home, a dog barks.
With one more snap, the figure disappears.
