Dawn and Rory are still struggling to become a family when their parents’ car is found wrecked and covered in blood. Could the terrifying Slobberers be responsible? As the pair investigate, strange events unfold: sheep turn savage, a battered bus seems to repair itself and time begins behaving oddly.
