Relics - the folded land, paperback/tim lebbon

Forty years ago the American West Coast village of Longford was subjected to a secret military test--a biological agent that drove the inhabitants insane.

Gassed, isolated, and declared off-limits, Longford disappeared when the valley was flooded.

Now drought has caused the village to emerge, and not everything there has remained dead.

A small group investigates, including ex-Marine Robert ``Bone`` Bonham and Vince (from Relics).

More than scientific secrets are hidden in Longford--mythological creatures are stirring, including the last of the Nephilim, who seeks to recruit the creatures in a war against Mankind.
