Synopsis:
Set partly in Hong Kong, partly in Australia, Seeds is a tale of
punishment and redemption.
When writer Michael Baird arrives in town for rest and relaxation after suffering
a personal trauma, he walks into a nightmare that goes from bad to worse.
Soon, he finds his sanity hanging by a thread. Against his doctor's
advice, he launches an investigation into strange happenings and quickly concludes
that the town is in the grip of greed, murder, corruption and blackmail –
and perhaps something beyond this world.
Amid the carnage, Michael finds love. But can it survive when all else
around him is failing? And what about the strange little boy and his
friends? Are they the key that can unlock the truth behind the horror?
