Something is wrong in the traditional world of the scouts.

Scout Georg Molenbrick is unsettled by the behavior of some of his elders. As a twelve-year-old, he escapes abuse by the skin of his teeth. The "Fahrende Schar" scout association falls into disrepute. But the perpetrators remain in office. They harass Georg at every opportunity. He seeks revenge and crosses boundaries in the process. Detective Inspector Mirko Jägers becomes aware of him. Then events come thick and fast. The late hunt begins.
