The writing began as a true story… and then refused to be bound by convention.

Only in the past can a disgraced historian, a failing science student and a broken psychologist prevent the destruction of the world.

In the 1960s, an undiagnosed bipolar boy was sent to a strict military boarding school. Brutal, unreal, and unforgiving. Think Lindsay Anderson’s film ‘If….’—but stripped of irony, and with the surreal factor turned up to eleven.

What followed was not a neat redemption arc. It was a collision with ufology, the paranormal, and the strange, shifting cultural undercurrents of the United Kingdom in the 1970s – eventually leading that once brutalised boy to become one of the country’s most original and influential investigators of unexplained phenomena and historical mysteries.

There are no chosen ones here. Just people carrying grief, guilt, bad decisions, and the uncomfortable truth that the sheer effort to save the world doesn’t fix what’s broken within.

Expect humour where it shouldn’t exist, loss that cannot be undone and a future that resists being saved as much as it resists being understood.

Because history doesn’t change cleanly, and neither do we.
