==Synopsis==
Two down-on-their-luck fisherman and their boat are hired by a pair of Jesuit priests from a secretive order dedicated to combatting the insidious Esoteric Order of Dagon. Travelling to the middle of the English Channel, they succeed in delivering a biological weapon into a nest of fish-like humanoids.
Days later, dying from whatever horrific contagion has been released upon them, the oceanic monstrosities track down the ship's captain and his wife, murdering the two as a small measure of vengeance.
