THE BITTER TASTE

A former pentathlete, struggling with chronic pain, falls into the hands of an undead countess and her cursed followers. To escape a deadly hunt, she must reactivate her rusty skills in swimming, running, horseback riding, shooting, and fencing.

Desperate to retrieve mysterious documents that hold the key to defeating the countess, she knows she can‘t do it alone. Reluctantly, she forms an alliance with a dubious, yet charming fisherman harboring secrets and a sometimes helpful but irritable police officer.

As they navigate the eerie estate‘s catacombs, she uncovers the terrifying truth: the countess preys on female athletes to sustain her eternal youth. With the documents in her grasp, she must offer herself as prey in a deadly game, using the documents to outwit the undead.

As the hunt intensifies, her fading athletic skills and her allies‘ hidden pasts threaten their survival in a race against time.
