Im Linzgau 1903: Auf der Flucht durch finsteren Wald bricht ein junger Mann blutüberströmt auf dem abgelegenen Vrenenhof zusammen. Dort wohnt die heilkundige Elisabeth, die den Schwerverletzten bei sich aufnimmt und ihm das Leben rettet. Ihre Heilkunst beruht auf einem uralten Buch aus dem Kloster der Hildegard von Bingen - dem Konstanzer Kräuterbuch.
