Farin, the gravedigger’s son, lives in the medieval village of Heap. The eighteen-year-old is an outsider, bullied and ostracized by the villagers. His father has succumbed to a life of drinking, and so the young man has no option but to take over the job of gravedigger.
Farin’s life takes a dramatic twist when the village witch dies and he prepares her for burial. He finds an amulet hanging around the deceased preparer of poisons neck. And he can’t resist trying the trinket on . . .
