Monsters are real. The sooner Bertholdt accepts it, the better his chances of staying alive.
Four months ago, reluctant priest Bertholdt Kaufmann was charged with protecting the true identity Alois, a teenage werewolf rescued from vampires. Bertholdt believed they were safe. He couldn't have been more wrong.
During a tuberculosis outbreak that casts a cloud of suspicion over everyone, he sends away his young charge to protect her as witchfinders are called to their town. The witchfinders seek to prove the illness is linked to witchcraft, evidence of which could prove deadly for anyone accused.
At the risk of his own life, Bertholdt stays behind to ensure the innocent aren't targeted. When suspicion falls on him, Bertholdt is placed under arrest. The witchfinders are convinced he holds dark magic, and they're willing to torture him to prove it. The townspeople are against him. Evidence is piling up.
With his execution drawing near, can Bertholdt convince them of his innocence? Or will his chances of survival go up in flames?
