Hundnätter

Nadja leaves the city for the deserted house she grew up in, gets a job at a care home for teenagers, picks up with friends who never left and starts seeing a wiry, elusive man from the next town. The village has not changed: the unspoken pecking order and the violence that drove her away are still there, perhaps handed down. Loose dogs wander, beer is drunk on the drive to the pizza place. Nadja notices too much, and odd things start: a pike's head is nailed to her wall, a girl from the home turns up dead, and an unknown dog lurks among the trees.
