Description
Audrey Douglas arrives in Langestal Valley in January 1917, tasked with replacing the German language and culture at her new school. However, her arrival coincides with a disturbing discovery: the body of her predecessor, Helmut Heinrich, has been found in a local vineyard, two months after his retirement. The community is already on edge due to the internment of menfolk and the resulting hostility towards families from other backgrounds. As Audrey delves into the mystery, she teams up with local police constable Jim Boyd to uncover the truth behind Helmut's death. With many potential suspects and motives, they must navigate a complex web of relationships and tensions within the community. The investigation is further complicated by personal demons and horrors that both Audrey and Jim are facing. The case becomes a catalyst for change in Langestal Valley, as Audrey and Jim work to unravel the truth and bring justice to those responsible.
