In the remote Thuringian Forest, four consecutive shots shatter the silence early one morning. Shortly afterwards, a black-clad figure flees from an Italian restaurant. Riding an off-road motorcycle, the unknown man races into the foggy thicket and disappears without a trace. When criminal psychologist Annett Schuster and profiler Jan Kawig from the Erfurt State Criminal Police Office are called to the crime scene, they are confronted with a shocking picture: two married couples, including restaurant owners Ricarda and Toto Sardini, were murdered in cold blood. Only 16-year-old daughter Rebecca survived, but she can remember nothing. Is she the key to solving the murders? And what role do the seemingly mysterious connections to the mafia play? The deeper the investigative team delves into the case, the darker the depths of a family history become. A complex case for the Operational Case Analysis team.
