A small, secluded spot in the depths of the Black Forest. Two girls disappear from the same house: the first in 1949, the second in 1999. They never reappear. When Jessie inherits the house, she only realises too late the danger lurking in its shadows for her and her daughter, Mila. It is a danger arising from the rift that has run through her German-Chinese family for generations. And the ghosts of the past do not rest. Amidst the creeping horror and inexplicable events, this six-part mystery series poses the all-important question: Are we doomed to repeat the tragic mistakes of our parents and grandparents? Or is there a way to escape the inherited trauma, allowing us to forge our own path, free and unburdened by the shadows of the past?
