Mystery | Mystery Police Procedural
On a rainy November day police detectives Pia Kirchhoff and
Oliver von Bodenstein are summoned to a mysterious traffic
accident: A woman has fallen from a pedestrian bridge onto
a
car driving underneath. According to a witness, the woman
may have been pushed. The investigation leads Pia and
Oliver
to a small village, and the home of the victim, Rita
Cramer.
On a September evening eleven years earlier, two
seventeen-year-old girls vanished from the village without
a
trace. In a trial based only on circumstantial evidence,
twenty-year-old Tobias Sartorius, Rita Cramer's son, was
sentenced to ten years in prison. Bodenstein and Kirchhoff
discover that Tobias, after serving his sentence, has now
returned to his home town. Did the attack on his mother
have
something to do with his return? In the village, Pia and
Oliver encounter a wall of silence. When another young girl
disappears, the events of the past seem to be repeating
themselves in a disastrous manner. The investigation turns
into a race against time, because for the villagers it is
soon clear who the perpetrator is-and this time they are
determined to take matters into their own hands. An
atmospheric, character-driven and suspenseful mystery set
in
a small town that could be anywhere, dealing with issues of
gossip, power, and keeping up appearances.
