In winter the Kłodzko Valley is nearly empty. Janina Duszejko stays on with her dogs, casting horoscopes, keeping an eye on summer cottages whose owners are away and translating Blake. Then the quiet district is hit by a series of killings, and every victim is a local hunter. Duszejko has a theory: perhaps the animals are taking revenge on those who hunt them.
