The life of trainee police officer Julia starts to spin out of control when she falls in love with the mysterious Nick. But Nick is not who he says he is. After their first night together, she discovers that he has a huge swastika tattoo on his back. She starts to investigate and soon realizes that she is but a pawn in a much larger plan. Her investigation leads her deep into the forests of the Eifel to the abandoned bunkers of the Westwall. There, in the old World War II defense facility, the police officer finds the hideout of a group of terrorists – with whom she has more in common than she ever could have guessed.
