The story is set against the backdrop of a veenkolonie in the early 18th century, exploring the themes of superstition, witchcraft, and human relationships. The primary focus is on a mysterious young girl known as Cilie, who is referred to as Nevelhekse due to her enchanting singing and the rumors of her witch-like powers. The opening of "Nevelhekse" introduces the setting of the Echtens-Hoogeveen colony, detailing its history and population. It paints a picture of a rural community filled with superstitions and beliefs in witchcraft, particularly surrounding a newcomer known as the Stroeve and his daughter Cilie. While Cilie attracts the attention of Allard Bentinck, a young physician, the community's fear and suspicion toward her family threaten to complicate their burgeoning connection. The narrative hints at a blend of local lore and the natural world, setting the stage for conflicts rooted in fear, mystery, and desire, as Allard grapples with his feelings and the societal pressures surrounding him.
