Winnie Heller is the youngest inspector in the Wiesbaden Homicide Division. She is in her late 20s, single, ambitious and dedicated to her profession. She graduated from the Police Academy with the highest marks in criminology and psychology. However, there is a note in her file: 'obstinate and something of a loner'. It is mid-summer when five-year-old Corinna suddenly vanishes from a playground. As the search for the girl begins, Winnie and her partner Hendrik Verhoeven are called to a crime scene; the body of 40-year-old Lilli Fennrich has been found in a pond. Her husband Jasper Fennrich called the police but otherwise has nothing to say. In their very first case, Winnie and Verhoeven have to unravel a tangled web of dramatic family connections before they finally establish a link between the two crimes.
