Mankind's hero is forced to help a young lad who has lain in a coma, surrounded by thorns, for seven years. Stars Paul Hilton.

Travelling through Yorkshire, Pilgrim meets Noreen, whose son has been in a strange coma for the past seven years. 

He lies in his bed, surrounded by a huge growth of thorns. How can this enchantment be broken? 

As Pilgrim investigates, he is drawn inexorably towards the darkness beneath the mysterious Round Barrow of Willy Howe.
