Il piano escogitato da quattro studenti inglesi per sfuggire alle noie del college: è alquanto bizzarro: trascorrere tre giorni all'interno di un bunker (appunto "il buco") utilizzato durante la seconda guerra mondiale. Tuttavia qualcosa va storto, e la bravata in questione si muta in un incubo senza fine. Spetta alla protagonista cercare di ricordare cosa è realmente accaduto durante la permanenza nel bunker, estrapolando, con l'aiuto di una psicologa, la sconcertante verità celata nel suo inconscio.
