In October 1968, Donald Crowhurst, a 35-year-old engineer and father of four, embarked on one of the last great adventures of the 20th Century. He was one of nine men who set out from the English coast that autumn as part of the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race, chasing to be either the first or the fastest man to circumnavigate the globe - single-handed and non-stop. But for Donald the dream turned into a nightmare. Tragic, heartbreaking and enthralling, Crowhurst is a tribute to a brave man who was too proud to fail and too much alone to live.

On a school trip at the local museum, class troublemaker Scott Collins experiences a bizarre psychic connection with a forgotten ancient artifact - a glowing crystal skull. This begins a chain of events that takes Scott and his family to the New Forest, a creepy old house with even creepier occupants, a bungling criminal, a devious old lady, and a high stakes chase for his life!
