The descendants of the Swabian children are rising up!
A group of conspirators seeks to avenge perceived injustices from past centuries through vigilante justice. Upper Swabia is swept by a wave of violence. The leader of the criminal gang, Johannes, travels through the lands and towns where the events unfolded. He is convinced that this prosperity was made possible by the labour of the Swabian children. He finds followers in Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Austria. He demands large sums of money. But no one responds. Johannes becomes more radical. Animals lie dead in the farmyards. People are dying. The situation escalates.
Inspector Steven Plodowski and his colleagues stand up to the violence and delve ever deeper into the world of the Swabian Children.
