In the Shadows

Two massacred corpses lie on the exuberant drift in a forest hut. A third person is found barely alive but ends up in a psychiatry ward. The police begin an investigation that will both shock and surprise them.

After a rabid fox tries to attack two boys, the police trail the farm from which the infected animal comes from. Before they can intervene against the owner of the fox fur farm, he is murdered by an unknown intruder.

The police discover more animals infected with rabies. Pudil is killed by his two infected wolfdogs. During the autopsy, it is found that someone has put a tooth in his wound...

The police exhume the bodies of Svejda and Kouba. It is confirmed that they were killed by a bear, but Kouba has his mouth sewn up. In the wolfdogs' grave, they find a missing skeleton and one skull is missing a canine.

The trail leads to Machar, who is also suspected of breaking into the Bures home.

Machar is probably not the main perpetrator of terror around the town. Who is the murderer who takes revenge for ancient wrongs? Machar is firmly silent in custody and it is up to the police to solve the mysterious murders.
