She's not the evil one. They are.
1450s Germany. When gentle teenage Bettina marries a brooding woodcutter, she hopes for the best. But his twin feral children donβt want another stepmother. They didn't like the last one, either. That woman came to a grisly end after somehow falling into the fireplace in their cottage.
Her new husband soon abandons her, and Bettina must find a way to survive both the oncoming winter and his twins. Then their nearest neighbor is pushed into her own oven, and Bettina suspects the children are to blame for yet another death. Will she find what she needs to survive the twins and the villagers who have become convinced she's a witch?
