When the disappearance of children and bloody murders multiply in a small mountain village, an old legend shrouded in sulphur reappears... Commander Guardiano and Captain of the Gendarmerie De Rolan are forced to join forces to uncover the truth.
The Police Captain Franck de Rolan is hitchhiking on the road to reach the small village Roquenoir and a woman gives a ride to him. He is investigating the disappearance of several children in that area and when they reach the address, he learns that she is Inspector Elizabeth Guardiano. She drove to the address to investigate the gruesome murder of the local Vassell couple. They meet the local chief of police Marcelin and his two police officers. Franck investigates the white van while Elizabeth searches the house and finds the boy Evan Vasseur hidden in the basement. They call an ambulance to take Evan to the hospital.

Further, he says that he knows all the children that have disappeared, and they are dead. However, Dr. Marbas interrupts Franck. Meanwhile, a Cessna with tourists that crashed in the woods has not been located yet. The coroner concludes that Mr. and Mrs. Vassell awfully killed each other and felt pleasure before dying.

They further investigation that all the victims have connection in the dark web. Meanwhile, a man riding a motorcycle is following them everywhere. What is the mystery of The Soul Eater?
