In Germany, no wolf has ever attacked ever attacked a human being. Until now ...
Hunters disappear at night without a trace while stalking - including the father of vet Jenny Rausch. At the same time, attacks by apparently wild wolves in German forests are on the increase. The cameras on a specially installed protective fence controlled by AI are recording strange data, which brings public prosecutor Frederik Bach onto the scene. Have the missing hunters really fallen victim to wolves or is it a case of murder? Prosecutor Bach and Jenny get caught up in a maelstrom of events that link crimes committed during the Nazi era, one of the best-kept secrets of the GDR dictatorship and a family drama. The two finally find answers in Jenny's own past - and on the most dangerous island in the world.
