It begins with a favour for his uncle. He's a dogged journalist. His visit coincides with a total solar eclipse. He's been here before, and so has his uncle. He's determined to disprove his uncle's theories. He doesn't believe in any local bunkum, or her. It's an isolated corner of the world. Its inhabitants are indigenous tribes people. It holds beliefs and customs involving heavenly events. Its god is a sacred scarab who is easily angered. It attracts an archaeologist to its ancient burial grounds. She's been missing for 10 years. She's found holding the sacred scarab. She claims not to remember her missing decade. She distrusts him and so does the scarab. She's the granddaughter of the archaeologist. It ends in a three-way obsessive quest for the truth.
