A tale of politics and cosmic terror
UK 1974 – glam rock on the radio, pub bombings, strikes, power cuts, and rumors that a right wing cabal is working with the security services to remove the elected British government from power. And in the darkness, Old Powers are stirring.
When Prime Minister Harold Wilson dispatches Hugh Bannister to investigate reports of black magic orgies taking place in an exclusive London apartment complex, it turns out to be only the tip of an occult iceberg of sex, drugs, human sacrifice, a serial killer stalking the decaying mills and factories of Britain’s industrial heartland, and the most powerful witch to be born for generations. And all roads lead to the remote Peak District village of Hartslow.
Part political thriller, part cosmic horror, Hartslow blends fact, fiction, and some of the seventies’ most notorious denizens in a tale that is more true than you might imagine.
