Quinze années après leur captivité dans la maison de pain d'épices, Hansel et Gretel laissent libre court à leur soif de vengeance. Adultes, les deux frères et soeurs sont devenus d'impitoyables et sanglants chasseurs de prime, spécialisés dans la traque des sorcières du monde entier. Le duo a été recruté par le maire d'Augsburg, Englemann, pour débarrasser la ville de Muriel, une sorcière diabolique régnant sur la forêt voisine. Cette dernière a enlevé plusieurs enfants du village et projette de les sacrifier lors d'une cérémonie qui doit se dérouler durant la nuit de la Lune du sang. A l'approche du moment fatidique, Hansel et Gretel sont rattrapés par un autre ennemi, bien plus dangereux encore que la sorcière : leur propre passé...

The writer Sofie lives with her daughter, her son and her motherly friend Rosa in a pretty Leipzig city villa. Her life seems to have a firm grip on the single mother - if it were not for this writer's block that prevents her from completing her new romance novel. To make matters worse, her childhood sweetheart Vincent emerges completely unexpectedly. Vincent, Rosa's son, left her 15 years ago overnight. She has never heard from him since. Therefore, she tries to keep secret from him that she connects far more than a broken love ...

Katharina and her son Stefan (16) live in a small town where everybody knows everybody. Stefan has been born with severe asthma. Katharina has ceased to count the nights that she has spent at his bed listening with fear, his breath. Their care and care have accompanied the child's growing up. Very deeply in Katharina is a doubt whether she really loves her child. Stefan's burgeoning sexuality finds its way in a disturbing way. He scares women during nightly journeys through the city, escorts prostitutes in front of a brothel, and watches couples in sex. When a young woman is found dead, the suspicion grows in Katharina that Stefan can be the culprit. He winds more and more out of Katharina's clasp and is increasingly aggressively seeking his own space. When a second woman is found murdered, Catherine's suspicion becomes evident. The relationship between mother and son implies a tragedy.
