Synopsis

Madeleine Montana lives in her self-created world and in the fantasy that she is still a famous bestselling author. The taboo-free cynic has a sharp tongue against everyone and everything - including her own son Oliver. When a serial killer terrorizes Vienna, it turns out that the crimes are based on scenarios from Madeleine's books.
