The story is about a group of sailors who are caught in a storm at sea and the terrifying things that happen to them. The team of explorers are traveling to an uncharted island in the middle of the ocean to find a missing scientist. The island is full of fog, and the explorers soon realize that the fog is a living thing. The fog is a goddess, and she wants the explorers to take her home.
But the darkness is not the only thing that is terrifying about this storm. There are also the ghosts of the sailors who have died in this storm, and they are coming for them.
Morrell is the author of First Blood where the character Rambo first appeared.
