Based around the true story of the 'Lochnagar Crater' in Northern France.

David Skelton, suffering from acute claustrophobia, must travel from Edinburgh to New York for an awards ceremony that will boost his literary career, but getting there would be a supernatural feat, as he can’t even ride in a taxi much less travel inside an airliner. His phobia has made his life a hellish existence. David’s wife persuades him to let his psychiatrist try hypnosis to cure him. Dr. Williams believes phobias are inherited; he’s been experimenting with regression hypnosis therapy that may reveal the root of the problem. Lying on a familiar couch in 1976, David goes under and works his way back from a WW2 cemetery to the horrors of WW1 where his grandfather died in the tunnels under Lochnagar. If David survives, he may finally be cured and travel to New York. If not, there’ll be no end to his torment.
