Inspired by shocking true events, "The Midwife’s Remedy" is a haunting exploration of desperation, courage, and the deadly lengths one woman will go to protect those who cannot protect themselves...
Some cures are more deadly than the disease…
In the quiet Hungarian village of Nagyrev, hidden among fields of barley and whispered secrets, something sinister is brewing.
When war sweeps the men away, the women of Nagyrev discover a dangerous freedom they've never known—only to see it threatened when the men return, bitter and broken. As bruises blossom again behind closed doors, the village midwife, Zsuzsanna, decides she has seen enough. She offers the women something their husbands never could: escape.
But freedom comes at a price.
One by one, husbands and fathers begin to die, their deaths quiet, mysterious, and untraceable. At first, it's justice. Then it's mercy. But soon, it becomes something darker.
In Nagyrev, monsters wear familiar faces—and the truth may be more chilling than fiction.
