Tony Carcano leads an isolated and monotonous life, in which the only emotions he experiences are those described in his own books, romance novels that have long provided him with success and stability. However, Sibylle, a careless and charming twenty-something, bursts into his life with an old photo of him as a smiling young man next to the dead body of a woman: Erika Knapp.
Tony is forced to pick up the threads of a story that he wanted to leave behind for a long time. Together with Sibylle, she will have to re-enter the shadows of the small Tyrolean town of Kreuzwirt, where a mystery made of lies, violence, madness, and greed is hidden. This thriller with overwhelming power and diabolical rhythm will make a secret, which had been hidden for over twenty years, resurface, opening wide the floodgates of hell.
