Boneland

In 1893, the Guests attempt their first contact with the human race. Families go mad. Parents commit suicide. A president is assassinated.

By 1918, in the bleak boneland of the 20th Century, human assassins commit atrocities and global wars are waged to sate the appetites of the Guests.

John Board is a crime scene photographer, whose nightmarish images of human destruction are being used as titillating entertainment. Board's future is tied in with these unseen, unfathomable forces – and so is his past.
