The description of the series reads, "Set amidst the terrifying backdrop of the witch hunts in a quiet 1600s English village, SOMNA follows one woman's escape from the confines of her puritanical world. Ingrid is unhappily married to Roland, the town's bailiff and chief witch hunter, who has embarked on a single-minded quest to purge the 'heretics' in their midst. After a prominent town leader is found murdered, accusations fly and no one is above reproach from Roland's deadly crusade. Ingrid has her suspicions about who the real murderer is, but even as she searches for the truth, she's pursued by a shadowy figure. Ingrid gravitates to the foreboding phantom in ways she can't resist; does this otherworldly seduction hold the key to the mystery? Or will he damn Ingrid's soul to the blackest circle of Hell?"
